We drilled 13 holes on Ocean Drilling Program Leg 115 in the Indian Ocean and recovered Paleogene sediments that consisted primarily of pelagic components. Planktonic foraminifer assemblages displayed high diversity throughout the Paleogene from the late Paleocene to the Oligocene/Miocene boundary and consist of predominantly warm-water species. Faunas of middle Eocene age are remarkably well represented. Biostratigraphic assignment was, however, very difficult because of the turbiditic character of most of the Paleogene sediments. Reworking is a constant feature of the middle Eocene through early Oligocene planktonic faunas, with reworked faunas frequently overwhelming the younger ones. Preservation within turbidites ranges from excellent to very poor to total destruction of planktonic foraminifers. A major dissolution episode is recorded in the interval that spans most of the late Eocene through the early Oligocene, especially at the deeper sites where the source area was probably well below the lysocline. Redeposition decreases markedly by the mid-Oligocene, but it is only by late Oligocene Zone P22 that normal sedimentation resumes and/or redeposition decreases even at the most affected sites (such as Hole 709C). Comparison with other sites drilled previously in the Indian Ocean reveals that mixed assemblages were already known for sediments from the Mascarene Plateau-Seychelles Bank and surrounding basins during that time span.
