AB A quantitative taphonomic analysis were performed in the fossil assemblages of the late Tortonian of thelower-mid part of the Cacela Formation (Cacela, Algarve, S Portugal). Taphonomic results, together withsedimentological analysis and the faunal assemblages, allow to inferring palaeoenvironmental changes.The upper Tortonian sedimentation started with fan-delta conglomerates that quickly changed to outerplatformsilty marls deposited in a setting with a relatively low sedimentation rate as indicated by theconcentration of glauconite. Higher up into the section, a progressive shallowing trend is inferred, andsediments of inner platform settings were formed
