A tentative Cretaceous nannoplankton zonation is given and the biostratigraphic extent of classical European and newly proposed oceanic stages as well as radiometric ages for important paleontological events and geochronologic boundaries are presented. Calcareous nannoplankton distribution at Sites 390 and 391 is discussed. The evolutionary lineage of Lithraphidites carniolensis-L. praequadratus-L. quadratus is used for the biostratigraphic subdivision of the uppermost Bermudan Stage. A working hypothesis of Cretaceous nannoplankton evolution and oceanography of the Cretaceous oceans is discussed. One new genus (Haqius) and two new species (Lithraphidites praequadratus and Cyclagelosphaera bergeri) are proposed. The evolution of Retecapsa during the Early Cretaceous is discussed and light micrographs are provided for/?, neocomiana, R. angustiforata, and/?, brightonii.
