title: Barremian rhyncholites (Lower Cretaceous Ammonoidea: calcified upper jaws) from the Serre de Bleyton (Département Drôme, SE France)
abstract: Seven calcified upper jaw tips of Rhynchoteuthis astieriana d’oRbigny and Palaeoteuthis infira (shiMansky) from the Serre de Bleyton section (Dept. Drome, SE France) were redeposited from an outer shelf into an upper slope (upper bathyal) environment embedded in a highly fossiliferous Barremian bioclastic limestone. They represent a low diverse and poor preserved small Barremian pelagic rhyncholite fauna, also described from a few Tethyan and Alpine localities between Cuba, the Crimea, and the C
