Abstract:
Cretaceous sediments were recovered at all four sites (Sites 463-466) of the central North Pacific drilled during Leg 62 of the Deep Sea Drilling Project. One of the objectives was to get more information about the development of ocean plankton communities and early evolution of planktonic groups of the Mesozoic. In this article, the Cretaceous calcareous nannofossils from two areas of the central North Pacific (Mid-Pacific Mountains and Hess Rise) are listed and discussed. (The Cenozoic calcareous nannofossils are discussed by R. Schmidt 1981). Coring was continuous at all sites. Mesozoic calcareous nannoplankton assemblages range on the Mid-pacific Mountains from Barremian to Early Maastrichtian, and on Hess Rise from Albian to Late Maastrichtian. (No calcareous nannofossils older than Barremian or Albian respectively were found).
