Abstract
An assemblage of microfossils, including calcareous green algae (dasycladaleans: Deloffrella quercifoliipora, Bakalovaella elitzae, Salpingoporella cf. muehlbergii, Terquemella sp., Neomeris sp., and Cylindroporella? sp.; Halimedaceans/Gymnocodiaceans: Boueina sp. Permocalculus aff. minutus), red algae (Solenoporaceans?: Marinella lugeoni), cysts of dinoflagellates? (Cadosina fusca fusca, Colomisphaera aff. conferta) and foraminifers (Torinosuella peneropliformis, Charentia cuvillieri, Commaliama sp.) is described from the carbonate beds within the terrigenous-carbonate Sangestan Formation (Upper Jurassic - Neocomian) exposed near the small village of Zereshk, approximately 63 km SW of Yazd, central Iran. The micropaleontological assemblage indicates a late Neocomian (Hauterivian) age of the carbonate beds.
