Since the same problem exists almost everywhere in the mediterranean region, as well in Egypt and French North Africa, as the other countries of the Near East, and since a definite solution of this problem is far from acquired, it seems useful to present here a short note on this problem as far as Turkey is cancerned. </div> <div style="text-align:justify;">The paleontological study of the argiltaceous marly beds of the Germav Formation has been executed in the Micropaleontological Laboratory of M.T.A. Enstitüsü at Ankara during the winter season of 1951-1952 by Dr. A.ten Dam. A study of the underlying massive limestones will be done by Dr. A. S.
