Abstract. In the Lusitanian Basin (west-central Portugal), Upper Jurassic (Oxfordian) sediments were investigated in order to identify palaeontological assemblages of charophytes. Systematic studies were undertaken on specimens obtained from four field sections (Pedrógão, Vale de Ventos, Memória and Valverde). These studies revealed the presence of new forms of Porocharaceae (Porochara pedunculata n. sp) and of forms previously unknown in this region (Auerbachichara cf. saidakovskyi), as well as P. raskyae, P. minima, P. fusca, P. sulcata, P. kimmeridgensis, Aclistochara longiformis and Porochara sp. Comparison of the charophyte palaeofloras recognized in all of the studied sections has allowed the definition of three different assemblages which, coupled with other data, help to correlate these successions of Early (?) to Middle (Late?) Oxfordian age.

New colonial corals from near Pittsburg Landing, Idaho, are clearly dated as Middle Jurassic (Bajocian) in age. They consist of Coenastraea hyatti (Wells) and Thecomeandra vallieri n. sp., and occur abundantly with molluscan fossils in thin, biostromal limestone beds in the Coon Hollow Formation. These fossils are the youngest shelly faunas yet known from the Wallowa terrane. The similarity of the coral and bivalve fauna to endemic faunas of the Western Interior suggests that during Middle Jurassic time, the Wallowa terrane was close enough to the North American craton for faunal exchange with the Western Interior Embayment. The Pittsburg Landing corals appear dissimilar from Middle Jurassic corals known from other terranes of the western Cordillera.
