Abstract

New discoveries have established the presence of nine ammonite zones in the Middle Jurassic beds of East Greenland. The top two are Lower Callovian; the remaining seven yield ammonites unknown from extra-Boreal provinces and are presumed to range down through the Bathonian, possibly into the Bajocian.
