Abstract

Within Cretaceous sequences, important reservoirs are reported in Cuban North Hydrocarbon Belt (FNHC). In them, siliceous facies appear in which calcareous shell microfossils are scarce or do not exist, but contain large quantities of radiolarians, making their study very important. This happens mainly in those rocks of deeper water facies, accumulated below the Carbonate Compensation Level (CCL), in which many times it is only possible to date them according to the content of radiolarians. They, in a relevant way, allow biostratigraphic determinations and more accurate paleoenvironmental analyses, in deposits where other microfossils are not abundant. In our country many investigations have been carried out on this group, fundamentally referred to petroleum activity, which have contributed to the knowledge of them, but they are dispersed and in their minority unpublished, therefore, in occasions they are of difficult access and consultation. To make a list of this taxonomic group is the main objective of this work, for which an extensive literature review was conducted, selecting the works for their contribution to the biostratigraphy of this age, resulting in species cards where a total of 32 families, 69 genera and 185 species are counted, in addition to updating the systematics and incorporating the paleontological results of more recent research.
