Upper Triassic (upper carnian - rhaetian) grey cherty limestone are known in
the internal Dinarides under the name of “Grivska Formation”. Sediments of
the Grivska Formation are characterized by microfossils only - conodonts and
radiolarians, and did not yield any macrofossils. Micropa - laeontological
research of Upper Triassic siliceous rocks was performed at the locality Lim
river, in the vicinity of Bistrica Village in SW Serbia. Radiolarian
assemblages are characterized by such species as Capnodoce anapetes De
Wever, C. sarisa De Wever, Sarla hadrecaena (De Wever), Praehexasaturnalis
tenuispinosus (Donofrio & Mostler), Xiphothecaellla longa (Kozur & Mock).
According to the radiolarian data, the investigated cherts are of latest
carnian to early norian age.
