Field and laboratory data were collected to observe the age and distribution of nannofossils in the study area. The results of observations from nannofossils in the Mallasoro section of the Jeneponto area are as many as 20 species were identified and examined in three markers of Sphenolithus pseudoradians (NP.22-NP.24), and the Last Occurrence of Dictyococcites scrippsae (NP.25-NN. 1). The age zonation of Tonasa Formation in this area is determined from the three datums is the Late Oligocene to Early Miocene (NP. 21 – NN.1) or correlated to CP.16c – CP.19a. The nannofossil abundances are distributed from bottom to top of the section is common to a few species, they are Cyclicargolithus floridanus, Sphenolithus moriformis , and Sphenolithus predistentus , respectively. Then followed by Zygrhabilithus bijugatus, Discoaster deflandrei , Dictyococcites scrippsae , and Coccolithus pelagicus in rare to present distributions and the others are present to single. ## Keywords - Foraminifera - Biostratigraphy - Paleontology - Calcareous - Geology - Section (typography) - Oceanography - Benthic zone - Business - Advertising --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
