Hauterivian dinoflagellate cysts from Milne Land, East Greenland.

Abstract

A minor shaly sequence in the middle of the Hartz Fjeld Formation is dated as Hauterivian on the basis of its dinoflagellate cyst content. The assemblage is compared with the dinoflagellate stratigraphy of the Speton Clay, England and the North Sea basin. This is the first report of Hauterivian sediments from E. Greenland. -from Author
