The Taraises Formation (Berriasian-Valanginian) in Northeastern Mexico: Subsurface and Outcrop Studies
Abelardo Cant-Chapa
Instituto Politcnico Nacional, Mexico City, Mexico
ABSTRACT
a, Nuevo Le
n, northeastern
Mexico, are described: (1) Capeloites neoleonense n. sp. and (2) Garcites
potrerensis n. gen. and sp. and G. cavernensis n. gen. and sp. The
presence of Dichotomites (Dichotomites) sp. in the same beds supports an
late Valanginian age for these strata. One specimen of Capeloites obtained from a
core of the La Laja-8 well, south of Tampico City, eastern Mexico, designates an late
Valanginian age for the interval drilled (2556-2562 m) in the so-called Lower Tamaulipas
Formation in this area. Global geographic distribution of Capeloites is
restricted to France, Spain, and Peru; its presence in Mexico supports a biogeographic
link between Europe and America.
