Figure 19: Simplified schematic geodynamic interpretation: a) from the Oxfordian to earliest Kimmeridgian deposition took place within Adriatic Carbonate platform subtidals and/or peritidals; b) from the Middle to Late Kimmeridgian and up to the end of Early Tithonian deposition took place within intraplatform trough and/or peritidals; c) from the Late Tithonian platform subtidals were re-established above the former intraplatform trough area, occupied by diceratid reefal buildups (not to scale).
