A biostratigraphically complete upper Maestrichtian-Danian sequence was recovered at ODP Leg 119 Site 738 on the southern Kerguelen Plateau (62°S). Planktonic foraminifers are abundant and well to moderately preserved in all upper Maestrichtian samples to within 6 cm of the Cretaceous/Tertiary bound...
