Abstract

In a sector of the Southern Iberian Continental Margin (in the Median Subbetic) isolated carbonate platforms developed over volcanic edifices, forming guyots, during the middle Jurassic. In these platforms, the sedimentation started with pelagic carbonates, then calcislltites with hummocky cross-stratification were deposited and ended with oolitic bahamian limestones. These shallowing-upward sequences frequently show palaeokarstic features at the top
