For the time interval studied, seven biozones of planktic foraminifera have been recognized. From oldest to youngest these are: the uppermost part of the Dicarinella asymetrica Zone, and the Globotruncanita elevata, Globotruncana ventricosa, Globotruncanita calcarata, Globotruncana falsostuarti, Gansserina gansseri and Abathomphalus mayaroensis zones. The biostratigraphic succession obtained from the sections studied in the Prebetic area is compared with those from sections in Tercis (France) and Kalaat Senan (Tunisia).engLatest Santonian to latest Maastrichtian planktic foraminifera and biostratigraphy of the hemipelagic successions of the Prebetic Zone (Murcia and Alicante provinces, south-east Spain)journal articlehttp://www.elsevier.com/locate/CretResopen access56:551.7Planktic foraminiferaBiostratigraphyHemipelagicCampanianMaastrichtianBetic RangesSpainGeología estratigráfica2506.19 Estratigrafía
