Abstract A distinct unconformity is recognized between the Cretaceous and Tertiary rocks in Nagashima and vicinities (Kagoshima Prefecture) in the coastal region of southwest Kyushu. The Tertiary rocks are ref...erred to the Akasaki formation and the overlying Nummulites beds. The basal red-beds rest on the Cretaceous Himenoura and Goshonoura groups with an angular structural unconformity. The Cretaceous sequence below the unconformity ranges from the zone of Inoceramus balticus (Campanian), through that of Inoceramus uwajimensis (Coniacian), to the probably Turonian Upper Goshonoura. From the observed facts and other available evidence comments are given on more general geological problems.show more
