Abstract:
Jurassic sediments of Ler Dome near Bhuj, Kutch, belonging to Chari Formation yielded forty-two benthic foraminiferal species from thirty-three samples. Thirteen species are reported for the first time from this region. All the species are benthic comprising calcareous hyaline and agglutinated forms. Callovian to Oxfordian age is suggested for the studied sequence. An attempt is made to mark the Callovian-Oxfordian boundary in the Ler Dome section.
