Sažetak
A rich algal assemblage at the Kozica locality, in the northern foothills of Mt. Biokovo, contains, among other forms, Praturlonella salernitana BARATTOLO. In addition, the descriptions of Clypeina bucuri BARATTOLO & ROMANO and C. lucana BARATTOLO & ROMANO are updated, and the originally described Clypeina teakolarae RADOIČIĆ et al., has been tentatively transferred to the genus Falsolikanella GRANIER; hence Falsolikanella? teakolarae n. comb. Falsolikanella? macropora n. sp. is described, characterized by probable metaspondyle growth of clearly phloiophorous branches, differentiated individually into a narrow stalk and very long, markedly widened, outer part. Based on the algal assemblage as a whole, together with benthic and planktonic foraminifers, the stratigraphic position of the algal-bearing level has been defined as Ypresian (lowermost Eocene).
