%X <span style=\"white-space:normal;\">An integrated benthic foraminiferal and organic matter analysis of samples obtained from sedimentary sections exposed in the Mangoule-Bonepoupa area, revealed a very shallow marine paleo-depositional environment for the sediments studied, with considerable influx of continental organic matter that were accumulated during the Cenomanian-Turonian age. With reference to the lithostratigraphic profile of the Douala/Kribi-Campo Basin, the age obtained reveals that the sedimentary sections studied belong particularly to the lower section of the Logbadjeck/Mungo River Formation, based on the following benthic foraminifera assemblage: </span><i style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span>Ammobaculites</span></i><span \"=\"\" style=\"white-space:normal;\"> </span><i style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span>jessensis</span></i><span \"=\"\" style=\"white-space:normal;\">, </span><i style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span>Ammobaculites</span></i><span \"=\"\" style=\"white-space:normal;\"> </span><i style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span>benuensis</span></i><span \"=\"\" style=\"white-space:normal;\">, </span><i style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span>Ammobaculites</span></i><span \"=\"\" style=\"white-space:normal;\"> </span><i style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span>coprolithiformis</span></i><span \"=\"\" style=\"white-space:normal;\">, </span><i style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span>Ammotium</span></i><span \"=\"\" style=\"white-space:normal;\"> </span><i style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span>cf</span></i><span \"=\"\" style=\"white-space:normal;\"> </span><i style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span>nkalagum</span></i><span \"=\"\" style=\"white-space:normal;\">, </span><i style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span>Ammotium</span></i><span \"=\"\" style=\"white-space:normal;\"> </span><i style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span>nwalum</span></i><span \"=\"\" style=\"white-space:normal;\">, </span><i style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span>Haplophragmoides</span></i><span \"=\"\" style=\"white-space:normal;\"> </span><i style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span>cf</span></i><span \"=\"\" style=\"white-space:normal;\"> </span><i style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span>beuchensis</span></i><span \"=\"\" style=\"white-space:normal;\">, </span><i style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span>Trochamina</span></i><span \"=\"\" style=\"white-space:normal;\"> </span><i style=\"white-space:normal;\"><span>taylorana.</span></i><span \"=\"\" style=\"white-space:normal;\"> </span><span \"=\"\" style=\"white-space:normal;\">A particularly very poor palynomorph assemblage was recovered and included no age
