Abstract
Common pelagic (Tethyan) microfossils from the Upeer Jurassic and Berriasian rocks of La Faurie, Hautes-Alpes, France, are described and illustrated, and their stratigraphical distribution compared with that of similar assemblages elsewhere. The fossils include crinoids, tintinnids, radiolarians, and incertae sedis such as Globaochaete, Cadosina, and Stomiosphaera. Lombardia Bronnimann is considered to be a synonym of Saccocoma Agassiz.
