Megaflora del Pennsylvaniano de la Sierra de Los Llanos, La Rioja, Argentina

Abstract

Se describen dos asociaciones megaflorísticas provenientes del Pennsylvaniano que afloran en las localidades La Huerta y Santa Bárbara, noreste de la Sierra de Los Llanos en La Rioja. La megaflora de La Huerta proviene de sedimentitas referibles a la Formación Solca (La Huerta-nivel PF I) y está compuesta por abundantes ramas de coníferas (Paranocladus? fallax Florin), semillas dispersas (Samaropsis nunezii García emend. A. Archangelsky, Eucerospermum nitens Feruglio emend. A. Archangelsky), hojas de cordaitales [Cordaites sp. cf. C. hislopii (Bunbury) Seward], ejes de licofitas (cf. Bumbudendron versiforme Gutiérrez et al.) y fragmentos de pinnas referibles a Pteridospermas (Eusphenopteris sp.). Esta asociación es referida con dudas a la Biozona de Intervalo del Pennsylvaniano más tardío. Por su parte la asociación de Santa Bárbara, fue obtenida de sedimentitas referidas a la parte inferior de la Formación Loma Larga y está compuesta por restos referibles a cf. B. versiforme, que sugieren la presencia de la Biozona NBG (Nothorhacopteris argentinica-Botrychiopsis weissiana-Ginkgophyllum diazii), característica del Pennsylvaniano del oeste de Argentina.

Fossil plant assemblages from the Pennsylvanian of Sierra de Los Llanos range, La Rioja Province, are described in this contribution. They come from the La Huerta and Santa Bárbara sections, cropping out in the northeastern flank of the Sierra de Los Llanos range. La Huerta section, referred to the Solca Formation, yielded a diverse macrofossil assemblage composed by conifers (Paranocladus? fallax Florin), dispersed seeds (Samaropsis nunezii García emend. A. Archangelsky, Eucerospermun nitens Feruglio emend. A. Archangelsky), cordaitals [Cordaites sp. cf. C. hislopi (Bunbury) Seward], lycophytes (cf. Bumbudendron vermiforme Gutiérrez et al.) and pteridosperms (Eusphenopteris sp.). This assemblage is provisionally referred to the Megafloristic Interval Biozone, latest Carboniferous in age. Santa Bárbara section, assigned to the lower Loma Larga Formation, yielded remains of the lycophyte cf. B. versiforme. This assemblage is referred to the NBG Biozone (Nothorhacopteris argentinica-Botrychiopsis weissiana-Gynkgophyllum diazii) that characterizes the Pennsylvanian of western Argentina.
