Biostratigraphy based neogene dinoflagellate cysts in northeast of patagonia, Argentina

This paper presents the biostratigraphic results based on dinoflagellate cysts from two Neogene lithostratigraphic units cropping out in northeastern Patagonia. The Barranca Final Formation, located in the southwestern Colorado Basin, is exposed along the northern coast of San Matías Gulf, Río Negro...

Argentina Dinoflagellate cysts Miocene Northern patagonia This paper presents the biostratigraphic results based on dinoflagellate cysts from two Neogene lithostratigraphic units cropping out in northeastern Patagonia.

Labyrinthodinium truncatum truncatum and Habibacysta tectata constrain the age of the Puerto Madryn Formation to the Serravalian to Tortonian interval (late middle miocene to early late Miocene).
