Abstract Kirsch, K.-H. 1991; Dinoflagellatenzysten aus der Oberkreide des Helvetikums und Nordultrahelvetikums von Oberbayern; M³unchner geowissenschaftliche Abhandlungen (A) 22, 306 pp., 105 figs., 43 plts. Annotated abstract: For the first time dinoflagellate cysts are described from Upper cretaceous and Paleocene strata of the Helvetic and Ultrahelvetic realm from Upper Bavaria and adjacent areas. Within the stratigraphic sequence Upper Turonian to maastrichtian over 300 samples from 20 localities reveal more than 200 species and subspecies. In addition, one new genus (Raetiaedinium) and 15 new species are described. 3 taxonomical reallocations are presented. The semiquantitative distribution of genera and generic groups is drawn in circle- and distribution graphs indicating dinoflagellate cyst associations of different facies. At least 6 zones and 4 subzones are established for the upper cretaceous of the Helvetic and Ultrahelvetic zone.
