Detailed study of the planktonic foraminifera revealed (25) species. The stratigraphic distribution of the Planktonic foraminifera recorded in the section permits the recognition of four zones these are from olderat the: 4- Gansserina gansseri Interval Zone ( Part). 3- Globotruncana aegyptiaca Interval Zone . 2- Globotruncanella havanensis Partial Range Zone. 1- Globotruncanita calcarata Total Range Zone ( Part) .
