Abstract
A section through shaly marlstones, marls, layers of bioclastic limestones and Vlkolínec Breccia with carbonate paraconglomerates of Párnica Formation were recently studied near Lúčky Spa in the Hlboké Valley (Choč Mts.). Samples from the marlstones on the right side of the section showed the occurrence of well–preserved rich associations of Aptian microfauna, mainly planktonic foraminifera. Detailed sampling shows the distribution of planktonic and benthic foraminifera through the section belonging to uppermost Bedoulian – Lower Gargasian zones: Leupoldina cabri, Hedbergella luterbacheri, Globigerinelloides ferreolensis zones and to Middle Gargasian Globigerinelloides barri Zone. Composition of assemblages with different morphotypes of planktonic and benthic foraminifera casts light on changing paleoecological settings during the deposition of Párnica Formation.
