dc.description.abstractA comprehensive taxonomic account of fourteen ammonite species from the upper Albian succession of the Cauvery Basin, south India is presented. They belong to the genera/subgenera Gaudryceras, Anagaudryceras, Tetragonites, Puzosia (Puzosia), Puzosia (Bhimaites), Desmoceras (Desmoceras), Desmoceras (Pseudouhligella), Stoliczkaia (Stoliczkaia) and the heteromorphs Anisoceras and Mariella. Most of these ammonite species are cosmopolitan and well-known, especially from the western margin of the Tethys. The additional value of this study in contrast to earlier studies is founded in the intensive bed-by-bed collection from a well-documented measured section. This allows to establish a first detailed range chart for the uppermost Albian of this region and to correlate the Cauvery Basin section with the upper Albian Mortoniceras perinflatum Zone-Arrhaphoceras briacensis Zone interval of the Standard Tethyan Scheme. © 2019
