Andrzej Gaździcki, Pamela Reid

Abstract


Tethyan benthic foraminifera of the family Involutinidae Bütschli have been discovered in the Upper Triassic sequence at the Lime Peak, Yukon (North Western Canada). Five species belonging to the genera Aulotortus Weynschenk and Triasina Majzon are recognized. The presence of Triasina oberhauseri Koehn-Zaninetti & Brönnimann in the involutinid assemblage indicates a Norian age for the investigated strata.
