Microfossils from Early Miocene lacustrine deposits of Pag island (SW Croatia)

The present study represents the extension of previous researches at the location of Crnika section on the Pag Island. All analysised samples are part of the materials collected and published (Bulić˛& Polšak, 2009) and have been donated by the Croatian Natural History Museum with the objectives to carry out detail analysis of microfossil associations.The Miocene lake deposits of section Crnika is exposed along the south western coast of the Gulf of Pag. The total thickness of Miocene lake outcrops and deposits in the covered parts of the profile along the Crnika coastline is 265 m (Bulić˛& Polšak, 2009). According to Jiménez-Moreno et.al (2009) the lacustrine deposits of Lake Pag had been probably deposited during the time interval between 17.2 and 16.7 Ma.
