The paper illustrates the coralline red algal (Corallinales, Rhodophyta) facies occurring in the middle-upper Eocene shallow water carbonate successions of the Colli Berici (Vicenza, northeastern Italy). Coralline assemblages are described in terms of growth-forms, taxonomy, taphonomic signatures. Larger benthic foraminifera are also described and illustrated. Palaeoecological and palaeoenvironmental settings are described and illustrated by the modelization of the shallow water carbonate platform which developed in the Colli Berici during the middle-late Eocene.

Abstract
The paper illustrates the coralline red algal (Corallinales, Rhodophyta) facies occurring in the middle-upper Eocene shallow water carbonate successions of the Colli Berici (Vicenza, northeastern Italy). Coralline assemblages are described in terms of growth-forms, taxonomy, taphonomic signatures. Larger benthic foraminifera are also described and illustrated. Palaeoecological and palaeoenvironmental settings are described and illustrated by the modelization of the shallow water carbonate platform which developed in the Colli Berici during the middle-late Eocene.File in questo prodotto:
