Eocene and Oligocene radiolarian biostratigraphy from the Southern Ocean
Eocene-Oligocene radiolarians from Ocean Drilling Program Sites 699, 702, and 703, Leg 114 of the Subantarctic Atlantic were examined in order to extend the tripartite zonation for the recovered cores based on results of similar analysis of Leg 120 submarine sediments from the Indian Ocean. Correlat...

Summary: | Eocene-Oligocene radiolarians from Ocean Drilling Program Sites 699, 702, and 703, Leg 114 of the Subantarctic Atlantic were examined in order to extend the tripartite zonation for the recovered cores based on results of similar analysis of Leg 120 submarine sediments from the Indian Ocean. Correlation of the two oceans is made by examining 23 biohorizons and the three zones, Eucyrtidium spinosum, Axoprunum irregularis, and Lychnocanoma conica, in ascending stratigraphic order. One new species, Eucyrtidium nishimurae, is described. |
