Ammonites from the Maastrichtian White Chalk of Denmark

View through CrossRef
Nineteen ammonite species are described or recorded from the Maastrichtian White Chalk of Denmark: Hypophyl/oceras (Neophylloceras) surya (Forbes, 1846), H. (N.) velledaeforme (Schliiter, 1872), Ana­gaudryceras luenebergense (Schliiter, 1872), Saghalinites wrighti Birkelund, 1965, Saghalinites n. sp., Pachydiscus (Pachydiscus) neubergicus (Hauer, 1858), Anapachydiscus aff. fresvillensis (Seunes, 1890), Glyptoxoceras cf. tenuisulcatum(Forbes, 1846), Diplomoceras cylindraceum (Defrance, 1816), P. (Phyl­/optychoceras) sp., Baculites knorrianus Desmarest, 1817, B. vertebra/is Lamarck, 1801, Baculites species 1, 2 and 3, Acanthoscaphites tridens (Kaer, 1848), A. varians (Lopuski, 1911), Hop/oscaphites constrictus (J. Sowerby, 1817) and H. tenuistriatus (Kner, 1848), and their ranges documented in terms of existing brachiopod and belemnite zonations. Seven taxa, representing the Phylloceratina, Lytoceratina, Ammon­itina and Ancyloceratina, extend to the high Maastrichtian at Stevns Klint. There are no indigenous Danian ammonites; specimens found in the basal Danian are derived from the underlying Maastrichtian.
