Ernesto Perez, Michael R. Cooper, Vladimir Covacevich
Abstract
RESUMEN. El hallazgo del ammonite Parahoplites gr. nutfieldiensis (J. Sowerby) en los estratos superiores de la Formacion Pabellon, Region de Atacama, indica una edad minima aptiana superior temprana para esta unidad. Lo anterior modifica la edad barremiana superior, sugerida previamente sobre la base de otros antecedentes paleontologicos, permitiendo, ademas, postular esa edad para el termino del ciclo sedimentario marino del Cretacico Inferior, en Chile y Argentina.
