  ​     ​A Google search suggests quite another location:  ​​Southwest Alentejo and Vicentine Coast Natural Park is a natural park in the Alentejo and Algarve regions of south-central Portugal.


  A geological manual -Page 625 - Google Books Result
  https://books.google.com/books?id=qBc5AAAAMAAJ
  Henry Thomas De La Beche - 1833 - ‎Geology
  Oolitic rocks, of England, 314; of Normandy, 316 ; of the North of France, ib.; ... 273 ; at Cussac, ib. ; of the Vicentine, 276 ; of the supracretaceous blue marls of  . . .  
  On page 276 of A Geological Manual, De La Beche provides a long list of fossils, including Nummulites.  So, this would be Paleogene, not Cretaceous.  


  Kind regards,   Roger

    As far as I can tell the Vicentine is a Cretaceous limestone cropping out in Italy.

    However, at least one author noted its similarity to marls in Normandy.  (“On the epiolitic rocks of the Venetian Alps,” 1850, by Prof. T. A. Catullo in the Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society of London, available via Google Books)  Is it possible that at one time the marls in Normandy were considered to be outcrops of the same formation?

    Rodrigo,



    From the way it is worded, I would guess that they mean "[from the] vicinity of Normandy, France", and simply refers to the collection location of the specimen.



    Hope this helps,



    Howard

      Dear all,

      I've got a fossil listed in the work of Férussac (1821) that is from the Vicentine of Normandy, France.

      Do any of you know what is meant as Vicentine by these earlier authors? Is it from the Cretaceous?

      Thank you!

      Kind regards,

      Rodrigo Salvador.
