Description

Middle Eocene (Lutetian) Nummulites beaumonti d'Archiac and Haime and Assilina papillata Nuttall are described from the Bhainskati Formation (Kirthar Series), Tansen Group in the Tansen area, Palpa district, the Nepal Lesser Himalayas. This is the first description of both species from Nepal. The specimens include only the megalospheric form and their internal morphology is discussed. Two species are useful in establishing a local and interregional correlation of marine Eocene strata. The paleoecology of the Nepal nummulitid bed is briefly described.
