AGE, BIOZONATION AND STRATIGRAPHY OF KAZHDUMI FORMATION OF SW IRAN

38 species and subspecies of Foraminifera, five of which are considered to be new, are recorded from Kazhdumi Formation of SW Iran. The recognized microfossil assemblages have proved being useful for biostratigraphic zonation, age determination and correlation of the examined rocks. Two zones and t...
