Abstract

The anisian  succession exposed in the Piz da Peres area, studied by De Zanche et al. (1992) using sequence  stratigraphy, is here examined from a micropaleontological  point of view. The Recoaro Limestone, deposited during highstand  time, contains the most diversified microfauna of the stratigraphic succession; it is Pelsonian in age, with the rypical association Meandrospira dinarica-Pilammina densa; the coeval Pelsonian foraminifers Paulbronnimannia  judicariensis  (Premoli Silva, 1971) and Paulbronnimannia  whittakeri Rettori gen. n., sp. n,, are also  present.
