Description
Summary:The distribution of 79 foraminiferal species is recorded among 23 samples taken from Cores 123-776A-16R through 123-766A-25R. The benthic species belong to the Ammodiscidae, Ammosphaeroidinidae, Spiroplectamminidae, Verneuilinidae, Tritaxiidae, Globotextulariidae, Eggerellidae, Ichthyolariidae, Nodosariidae, Vaginulinidae, Polymorphinidae, Glandulinidae, Bolivinidae, Turrilinidae, Fursenkoinidae, Pleurostomellidae, Patellinidae, Bagginidae, Quadrimorphinidae, Globorotalitidae, Osangulariidae, and Gavelinellidae families. The planktonic species belong to the Globigerinelloididae, Planomalinidae, Schackoinidae, Hedbergellidae, and Rotaliporidae families.On the basis of foraminiferal biostratigraphy, the interval from Sections 123-766A-16R-3 through 123-766A-17R-3 has been placed confidently in the uppermost Albian (equivalent of the Rotalipora appenninica Zone of Caron, 1985). Below this, correlations are tentative because of the absence of commonly used zonal index species. The interval from lower Core ... : species abundance: A = abundant, C = common, R = rare, - = absent ...
