Berriaselline neocomitids, including Berriasella jacobi, B. oppeli, Tirnovella allobrogensis, T. cf. allobrogensis, Delpinella consanguinea, Pseudosubplanites cf. grandis and Malbosiceras cf. asper, are the most abdundant species in this ammonite association. The olcostephanitid, Spiticeras blancheti, is rare. The index species in this ammonite jacobi, occurs in large numbers. On the basis of the present study, the upper boundary of the stratigraphic range of the Štramberk Limestone in the type area is dated as early Berriasian (ammonite Berriasella jacobi Zone). Ammonites with ages younger than early Berriasian have never been found in the Štramberk area. The deposition of the Štramberk Limestone in the Štramberk area came to an end during that period.
