Abstract
Upper Triassic dinoflagellate morphotypes are present from widespread localities in the Sverdrup basin, arctic Canada. Comparisons with associated macro‐fossil and palynofloral assemblages in five wells located in the western Queen Elizabeth Islands, N.W.T., suggest that these dinoflagellates provide a reliable biostratigraphic datum. Correlation with palynofloral successions in northwest Europe indicates that the dinoflagellate assemblage is in part, if not entirely, of Norian age.Keywords
