Abstract: Microbial structures, including microencrusters associations, are the main components of the Upper Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous reefal carbonates and play an important role in the paleoenvironmental and paleobathymetric reconstructions. In the Guri i Pellumbave section, a large range of microbial structures and microencrusters was identified and together with other organisms such as foraminifera, calcareous algae, calpionellids and different macro-organisms as corals and stromatoporoids, were important constituents of the studied deposits and abundant almost in the whole section. The mixture of elements typical of shallow water environments and those of deep water environments represented by calpionellids, allowed us to interpret the carbonate deposits of the studied section as slope sediments.
Keywords: microbial structures, microencrusters, Mirdita zone, Guri i Pellumbit, Beriassian-Valanginian.
