These sea ice communities can be supported by materials that are allochthonous and autochthonous. |
These rocks are also of biogeographic interest because unlike truly allochthonous terranes they are parautochthonous with respect to the craton. |
Although some skeletal remains are evidently allochthonous, other remains are probably parautochthonous. |
Synorogenic flysch deposits were laid down in front of the advancing allochthonous complexes, and were overridden by them. |
This has led to debate on whether this basement complex is allochthonous or autochthonous. |
The Menderes Massif is part of the Menderes-Tauride Block, a post-Permian microcontinent, which is allochthonous with respect to both Eurasia and Gondwana. |
