|
In the southeastern Ebro Foreland Basin, the marine deposits of Lutetian and Bartonian age show excellent outcrop
conditions, with a great lateral and horizontal continuity of lithostratigraphic units. In addition, the rich fossil
record -mainly larger foraminifers-, provides iostratigraphic data of regional relevance for the whole Paleogene
Pyrenean Basin, that can be used for the Middle Eocene biocorrelation of the western Tethys. This
contribution is a sedimentary and biostratigraphic synthesis of the basic outcrops and sections of the Lutetian and
Bartonian marine and transitional deposits in the southeastern sector of the Ebro Foreland Basin.
