Microplankton from the Cape Lamb Member, López de Bertodano Formation (Upper Cretaceous), Cape Lamb, Vega Island

Samples from the lower Cape Lamb Member, López de Bertodano Formation, Cape Lamb, Vega Island, Antarctic Peninsula have yielded rich and diverse marine palynofloral assemblages. The overall character of the palynofloral assemblages indicate a latest Campanian–earliest Maastrichtian age. Four new din...
