Programme
September 1st, 2005
 
Morning: Ferrara-Mossano (Vicenza). Mossano stratigraphic section where
Middle to Upper Eocene shallow water carbonates contain coralline algal and
larger foraminiferal facies successions.
 
Lunch in Mossano.
 
Afternoon: Mossano - Tonezza del Cimone (Vicenza). Lower Jurassic lagoonal
benthic assemblages represented by larger bivalves of the Lithiotis facies,
larger foraminifera, cyanobacterial encrustations and non-marine black
shales.
 
Accomodation and dinner in Tonezza.
 
September 2nd, 2005

Morning: Tonezza del Cimone-Lavini di Marco (Trento). Visit to the famous
paleontological site “Lavini di Marco” in which Lower Jurassic dinosaur
tracks are preserved. Stromatolites and dasycladaleans are also present.
 
Lunch in Lavini di Marco.
 
Afternoon: Transfer from Lavini di Marco to Rupingrande (Trieste)
 
Accomodation and dinner in Rupingrande (Trieste)
 
September 3rd, 2005

Morning: Rupingrande-Padriciano. The Padriciano stratigraphic section with
Maastrichtian beds, the K/T boundary and a complete sequence of shallow
water carbonates Danian to Thanetian in age (SBZ1-4). The section shows a
very rich content of Stromatolites and Charophyta (lower part of the
section) and foraminifera and red algae (upper part).
Padriciano – Dolenia Vas (Slovenja) and Čebulovica. Sections of Dolenja vas
and Čebulovica characterized by abundant and well preserved association of
dasycladaleans. 
 
Lunch in Rupingrande
 
Afternoon: Rupingrande-Medea. Visit of the Medea hill, the type-locality of
Microsporangiella buseri and Cymopolia paronai.
