Abstract
Analysis of abundant, diverse and well-preserved Albian nannofloral as semblages from onshore English sections has enabled a high-resolution nannofloral zonation to be developed with the construction of sixteen zones. The results are correlated with the ammonite zonation. Five new species, Acaenolithus viriosus sp. nov., Staurolithites rotatus sp. n ov., Staurolithites canthus sp. nov., Bownia glabra sp, nov. and Calcu lites percernis sp. nov. are described.
