Jurassian brachiopods of the Valanginian - Hauterivian interval. Their contribution to the dating of the Salima Formation in Mount Lebanon
View through CrossRef
Les gisements jurassiens français ou suisses du Crétacé basal (Valanginien ou Hauterivien) recèlent de nombreuses espèces de brachiopodes parmi lesquelles 3 espèces inconnues au Liban : Lamellaerhynchia desori (Loriol in Pictet & Campiche, 1872), Sulcirhynchia valangiensis (Loriol, 1864) et Terebratulina arzierensis (Loriol, 1864). Le site fossilifère de la Formation de Salima à Zeghrine, une localité proche de Bikfaya (Mont Liban), recèle une association constituée de Belothyris pseudojurensis (Leymerie, 1842), Lamellaerhynchia hauteriviensis Burri, 1953, Loriolithyris valdensis (Loriol, 1868), Lor. latifrons (Pictet, 1872), Sellithyris carteroniana (Orbigny, 1847) et Terebratulina biauriculata Orbigny, 1850, toutes également présentes dans les localités jurassiennes. Sur la base de l'étude de son association de brachiopodes, la Formation de Salima est par conséquent attribuée au Valanginien indifférencié. [The Jurassian French or Swiss outcrops of the lowermost Cretaceous (Valanginian or Hauterivian) yield numerous brachiopod species including 3 species: Lamellaerhynchia desori (Loriol in Pictet & Campiche, 1872), Sulcirhynchia valangiensis (Loriol, 1864), and Terebratulina arzierensis (Loriol, 1864), which are not found in Lebanon. The fossiliferous site of the Salima Formation at Zeghrine, a locality close to Bikfaya (Mount Lebanon), yields an assemblage made of Belothyris pseudojurensis (Leymerie, 1842), Lamellaerhynchia hauteriviensis Burri, 1953, Loriolithyris valdensis (Loriol, 1868), Lor. latifrons (Pictet, 1872), Sellithyris carteroniana (Orbigny, 1847), and Terebratulina biauriculata Orbigny, 1850; all are also present in Jurassian localities. On the basis of the study of its brachiopod assemblage, the Salima Formation is therefore ascribed an undifferentiated Valanginian age.]
