This fauna was considered as autochthonous, Two species were identified: Rosalina douvillei (CUSHMAN) and Quinqueloculinai seminula (LINNE). A few number of planktonic individuals were found. These individuals were refered to the species Globorotalia cf. mayeri CUSHMAN & ELLISOR. The paleoenvironmental characteristics of this outcrops, taken into account the information obtained from benthonic foraminifera, and the bioestratigraphic data obtained from planktonic foraminifera are discussed.
