Abstract: | Lower Cretaceous limestones from Bicaz Gorges (Eastern Carpathians, Romania), developed in Urgonian facies, frequently contain dasycladalean algae. In limestone samples collected from the eastern sector of the Bicaz Gorges, we have identified a large dasycladalean alga that we assign here to a new species and genus: Andreiella rajkae nov. gen. nov. sp. The general morphological features and the calcification pattern distinguish this new alga from previously known dasycladaleans with two orders of laterals. |
