Summary: | The Sarvak Formation in Tang – e – Chenarbashi with 712 meters thickness encompasses Albian - Cenomanian planktonic foraminifera. In the studied section, surveying the Albian – Cenomanian boundary is indicated that Rotalipora appeninica Zone not be recognized. Paracostellagerina libyca can be to consider as a marker for Albian – Cenomanian boundary, absence of the Albian marker foraminifera permit us to consider the first occurrence of this species as the begining of Cenomanian.
