Abstract

New biostratigraphic data on calcareous nannoplankton and larger foraminifera of the Tertiary of the Malaguide Complex in the Sierra Espuña area show the presence of previously unknown Upper Eocene sediments. The timing of the deformation in the Malaguide Complex of the Sierra Espuña area is analysed, and a Late Oligocene to Late Aquitanian age is proposed for the main deformation.
