Recent Benthic Foraminifera of Breton and Stake Islands Northern Gulf of Mexico ...
Fifty-three species of recent benthic foraminifera and thecamoebians have been documented and described from the Breton and Stake Islaand area, northern Gulf of Mexico, and from a core from Barataria Basin, Mississippi delta. Cluster analysis of benthic assemblages using presence/absence and transfo...
