Abstract
N. Ciaranfi, F. Lirer, P. Maiorano, M. Marino & S. Stefanelli, The Ionian Stage in the Mediterranean Quaternary.
The Ionian, that corresponds to the Middle Pleistocene chronostratigraphic time span, is a new Stage that extends from MatuyamaBrunhes reversal, at 0.78 My near to the Marine Isotope Stage 19, up to the Middle-Late Pleiestocene boundary at 0.13 My in correspondence with the base of MIS 5. The Ionian stratigraphic interval consists in two different parts: the lowest outcrops are well represented on land in two stratigraphic Sections in the Crotone Basin in Calabia and in the Montalbano Ionico area in Basilicata. The portion younger than MIS 15 is well represented in a Core continuosly drilled in the Sicily Channel ( KC 01B).
