Abstract
Resumo: No presente trabalho foram estudadas 12 amostras e efetuada a análise palinológica eestratigráfica de níveis laminíticos margosos e margo-calcários, do Cenomaniano médio, nopromontório da Nazaré. Identificaram-se 24 taxa de dinoquistos, pólenes, esporos, forros internos deforaminíferos, algas verdes e acritarcas. Nas associações de palinomorfos recuperadas merece destaque, do ponto de vista biostratigráfico, a presença de quistos de dinoflagelados, comdominância dos taxa Subtilisphaera sp., Xenascus sp. e o grupo Sentusidinium spp., sugerindoambientes neríticos internos de baixa profundidade com algum grau de confinamento(possivelmente salobros), sujeitos a incursões marinhas inferidas pela presença de Oligosphaeridiumsp., Florentinia sp., Palaeohystrichophora infusoriodes, Xenascus ceratioides, Coronifera oceanica, Downiesphaeridium sp. e Xiphophoridium alatum.
Abstract: The present study provides the palynological and stratigraphic analysis of marls and marly limestones sections of the middle Cenomanian on the Nazaré promontory. The palynological content recorded 24 taxa of dinocysts, pollen, spores, microforaminiferal linings, green-algae, and acritarchs, on a total of 12 samples. In the recovered palynomorphs deserves attention, from a biostratigraphic point of view, the presence of dinoflagellate cysts, which are dominated by Subtilisphaera sp., Xenascus sp. and Sentusidinium spp. group, suggesting a rather restricted shallow inner neritic environment (possibly brackish), open to marine influence, represented by Oligosphaeridium sp., Florentinia sp., Palaeohystrichophora infusoriodes, Xenascus ceratioides, Coronifera oceanica, Downiesphaeridium sp. and Xiphophoridium alatum.
