Análisis fitolíticos de la formación San Salvador (plioceno-pleistoceno inferior) en la cuenca del río Uruguay, Entre Ríos, Argentina

Abstract

En el presente trabajo se da a conocer el primer registro fósil a través de las asociaciones fitolíticas halladas en los perfiles Salvia y Concordia correspondientes a la Formación San Salvador (Plioceno-Pleistoceno inferior), este de la provincia de Entre Ríos, Argentina. Los procesos metodológicos se basaron en la aplicación de los principios y técnicas clásicos de la geología regional, geomorfología, estratigrafía y sedimentología, llevados a cabo durante el trabajo de campo y laboratorio. La obtención de silicofitolitos se realizó siguiendo el protocolo de procesamiento de muestras sedimentarias de origen fluvial. Los sedimentos son principalmente gravas matriz soportadas y arenas con estructuras internas y de superficie, de diferentes tamaños de grano y color, la fracción pelítica está representada por estratos arcillosos de importante potencia. Los silicofitolitos fueron observados frecuentemente en los estratos de textura psamítica fina a pelítica. Mientras que se registraron ausencia y/o escases de silicofitolitos en los estratos gravosos. Fitolitos elongados, poliédricos, flabeliformes y lobulares e irregulares fueron comunes al total de las muestras fértiles, mientras que entre los fitolitos de menor tamaño; globulares, bilobados, conos truncados y oblongos y crenados se presentaron en ambos perfiles. Se destaca una abundante presencia de fitolitos en forma de sillas de montar colapsadas afines a bambusoideas en las muestras correspondientes al perfil Concordia. Las asociaciones fitolíticas estudiadas representan el primer registro fósil de la Formación San Salvador, y están integradas por elementos de las familias Arecaceae, Poaceae (Bambusoideae, Panicoideae, Danthonioideae, Chloridoideae y Pooideae) y Podostemaceae. Estas asociaciones fueron originadas por paleocomunidades de bosques higrófilos, palmares y bosques en galería, que indican un clima tropical-subtropical húmedo, con gran disponibilidad hídrica.

This paper describes the phytolith assemblages recovered in the San Salvador Formation (Pliocene-Lower Pleistocene), East of the Entre Rios province, Argentina. The methodological procedures were based applications of regional geology, geomorphology, stratigraphy and sedimentology principles and techniques, which consist primarily a task field and laboratory. The silica microremains were extracted using standard protocol for sediment samples, but adapted for fluvial sediments. Sedimentary strata were conglomerates mainly of gravels matrix supported and sands of grain size different, with internal and surface structures. The clays fraction was represented by major clay strata. The phytoliths were observed in sand layers of fine texture and mud. In the gravel strata, absence and / or shortage of phytoliths were recorded. Elongated, polyhedral and fan shaped phytoliths were abundant. Smaller phytoliths as globular, bilobate, truncated cones are oblong and crenate were present in both profiles. Collapsed saddles of bambusoideas affinity were very frequent in the Concordia profile samples. The phytolith assemblages study, represent the first fossil record of this sedimentological unit, integrated by Arecaceae, Poaceae (Bambusoideae, Panicoideae, Chloridoideae and Danthonioideae) and Podostemaceae families. These assemblages were originated by humid forest, palm and riparian forests paleocommunities and indicate humid tropical-subtropical climate with high water availability.
