(Table 1) Distribution and numerical abundance of foraminifera of sediment core CRP-3
A foraminiferal fauna comprising c. 33 genera and c. 53 species was recovered from a suite of 156 Lower Oligocene sediment samples, mostly muddy sandstone and siltstone, selected over the 2.80 - 823.11 mbsf depth range in the CRP-3 drillhole. All foraminifers, except for 2 isolated specimens, occurr...
