New dinoflagellate cyst species from the Calafate Formation (Maastrichtian), Austral Basin, Argentina

The aim of this paper is to erect four new dinoflagellate cyst species from the Maastrichtian Calafate Formation, Austral Basin, Argentina. Andalusiella spinosa sp. nov. is strongly acrocavate and possesses a periphragm covered with spines. Palaeocystodinium pilatum sp. nov. has a periphragm densely...

description The aim of this paper is to erect four new dinoflagellate cyst species from the Maastrichtian Calafate Formation, Austral Basin, Argentina.
