Abstract

Numerous specimens belonging to the Apulites giganteus Tavani, 1958 have been discovered in a carbonate sequence of Western Murge that belongs to the "Calcare di Altamura" unit (Upper Cretaceous). In this study both genus and type—species are reexamined and redescribed, since the discovery of the Apulian specimens has permitted new paleontological and stratigraphical observations.
