ON THE OCCURENCE OF MAMETELLA (GREEN ALGAE) IN CARBONIFEROUS LIMESTONE BLOCKS OF THE ANKARA FLYSCH FORMATION

Öz A set of gray limestone blocks within the Ankara Flysch Formation which we have contributed previously (Erk 1982) found at Dağırsacık plateau situated 5 km of Hasanoğlan village, 35 km East of Ankara. One of these blocks is a yellowish brown colored biomicrite which contains a rich microfauna and microflora; and among these fossils, Mametella which was described by P. BRENGKLE (1977). From the begining our work, the interesting simillarities were found between our Microfauna - Microflora and European — N. America of similar age. To preseni this emphatic result this paper is prepared. A microflora of Stac- hininae among which Mametella, Stadıoides and Aoujihgalia are also represented is expiained.
