The detailed biostratigraphic and calcareous nannofossils investigations were carried out on a stratigraphic section in Chehel Formation. This study extends the palaeogeographical distribution of Late Paleocene echinids along the northern Tethyan margins. The investigated fossiliferous section is compared with coeval strata from other European regions.  ER -
