“…The Phyrocythere lata (S-1) assemblage zone of Late Coniacian age (Honigstein, 1984) was correlated in a northern Israel borehole section with the Marginotruncana angusticarenata zone (Lipson-Benitah, 1980). According to Lipson -Benitah (in press), at least the upper part of the S-1 zone, which was observed in Bar'am ( Fig.…”

The distribution and zonation of planktonic foraminifera and ostracods during the Late Coniacian -Early Maastrichtian succession in Israel was studied in detail from six surface sections. The combination of contemporaneous biozones led to a more accurate age determination of the local ostracod zones, according to the Tethyan planktonic foraminiferal zonation. The configuration of the biozones of both taxa presents more datum lines for stratigraphic correlation of the Senonian strata of Israel. Three new ostracod species were described from Campanian sediments: Cytherelloidea zinensis, Loxoconcha hebraica and Cristaeleberis ordinata.

“…The local biostratigraphy of the Cenomanian outcrops has been based mainly on ammonites (Lewy and Raab, 1978). Planktic foraminifers have been found sporadically in these outcrops, and the derived planktic foraminiferal biostratigraphy of the Cenomanian has been established on the coastal plain and offshore, where foraminifera occur more frequently (Lipson-Benitah, 1980, 1994Martinotti, 1993;Lipson-Benitah et al, 1995, 1997).…”

We present data on the calcareous nannofossil distribution in the Albian-Cenomanian borehole CT8 obtained from the Carmel area, NW Israel. The nannofloral assemblage consists of 113 species, with Watznaueria spp. dominating the entire succession. The detailed calcareous nannofossil biostratigraphy of this section is established, and seven nannofossil (sub)zones are recognised. For the first time the age of the Tavasim Tuff (V 2) is biostratigraphically identified as Late Albian. The quantitative analysis of the calcareous nannofossils suggests warm, open marine or coastal, mainly oligotrophic conditions throughout the entire succession of borehole CT8, with evident fluctuations of temperatures and fertility and a general trend towards cooling in the uppermost part of the sequence (Middle-Late Cenomanian). Temperature and nutrient variations correspond to those in the western Tethys, thus suggesting at least a supra-regional extent of processes detected in the Carmel Region. The biostratigraphy shows no evidence of hiatuses in the studied section, but the absence of positive carbon isotope anomalies associated with the Oceanic Anoxic Event (OAE) 1d and Mid-Cenomanian Event elsewhere suggests that the OAE 1d is possibly missing in the studied section due to a hiatus around the Isfiye Fm. / Arqan Fm. boundary.
