Transport of continental shelf sediments to the deep ocean can be studied from displaced
symbiont‐bearing larger benthic foraminifera found in turbidity current deposits. The larger …

We present here new quantitative analyses of planktic and benthic foraminifera to assess
the impact of the Middle Eocene Climatic Optimum (MECO,~ 40 Ma) on these biotic groups …

Biostromes and low‐relief bioherms, some of which are characterized by exceptionally
large, flat specimens of larger benthic foraminifera, are common in Palaeogene and …

This study focuses on the paleontological content of the middle Eocene (Bartonian)
carbonate–siliciclastic sediments of the Capo Mortola Calcarenite Formation from Olivetta …

Abstract The shallow-water Capo Mortola succession (Liguria, NW Italy) yields diverse
assemblages of smaller benthic and planktic foraminifera, larger benthic foraminifera (LBF) …

Investigating carbonate substrate communities within a palaeoenvironmental and
taphonomic framework allows for tracking the pre-burial conditions and history of the …

The nummulite bank from the Eocene Ziarat Formation is described for the first time from
Alborz, Iran, enhancing the record of these nummulite-rich accumulations in the Eocene of …

Since the introduction of the concept of a “nummulite bank” more than 50 years ago, the
significance of these peculiar sedimentary structures has been debated, especially whether …

Previous attempts to quantify the test-flattening trend in Heterostegina depressa with water
depth have been rather unsuccessful. Due to its broad depth distribution, H. depressa is a …

The present study provides new data on the diversity, abundance and depth distribution of
larger foraminifera (LBF) from a number of sites offshore Brunei Darussalam. This region …
