Abstract: The calcareous nannoplankton from the sediments of the Judea Group (Albian–Cenomanian) of the Carmel area (NW Israel) and the Southern Coastal Plain has been studied. The identified rich assemblages in the Carmel area consist of 113 taxa (borehole CT8) and 95 taxa (borehole CT2). On the Coastal Plain (borehole Negba 1), the impoverished assemblage of 24 taxa is recorded. The detailed calcareous nannofossil biostratigraphy of the Carmel area has been established and compared with planktic foraminiferal zones. In the Coastal Plain, different st...
