Recent and Quaternary Foraminifera Collected Around New Caledonia

These species are listed according to the classification of Loeblish & Tappan (1988), updated for the Recent species by Debenay et al. (1996). Their affinity with microfaunas from other regions is briefly discussed. Resume La compilation des travaux sur les foramini:feres actuels et quaternaires recoltes dans les eaux entourant la Nouvelle-Caledonie nous a permis de repertorier 574 especes. Ces especes sont presen tees selon la classification de Loeblish & Tappan (1988), mise ajour pour les especes actuelles par Debenay et al. (1996). Leur affinite avec les microfaunes d'autres regions est discutee brievement. Introduction The first study about foraminifera from the southwestern Pacific near New Caledonia was carried out by Brady (1884) during the voyage of H.M.S. Challenger (1873-1876), updated by Barker (1960), The nearest station was station 177, near Vanuatu (16°45'S-168°5'E). However, studies concerning directly New Caledonia began much later, with partial and local inventories in coastal samples (Gambini,1958, 1959; Renaud-Debyser, 1965; Toulouse, 1965, 1966). Samples of recent and fossil sediments collected during the Singer-Polignac mission (1960-1965) were further used for several studies of foraminiferal assemblages (Coudray & Margerel, 1974; Coudray, 1976; Margerel, 1981). -
Tasmanian Tertiary Foraminifera
Papers and Proceedings of the Royal Society of Tasmania, Volume 108 (ms. received 16.3.1973) TASMANIAN TERTIARY FORAMINIFERA Part 1. Textulariina, Miliolina, Nodosariacea by Patrick G. Quilty West Australian Petroleum Pty. Limited, Perth, W.A. (with four plates) ABSTRACT Foraminifera of the Suborders Textulariina and Miliolina and the Superfamily Nodosariacea are recorded from samples of all known Tasmanian marine Oligo-Miocene sections. Thirteen species of agglutinated foraminifera are identified specifically and one category is left in open nomenclature. Thirty species of porcellanous foraminifera (including CrenuZostomina banksi n. gen., n. sp.) are recorded and there are eight open categories. The Nodosariacea is represented by 63 identified species (including Lagena tasmaniae n. sp.) and 10 categories in open nomenclature. Information on each species includes original citation, synonymy of Australian identifications, remarks where necessary and occurrence and age in Tasmania. All identified forms are figured. INTRODUCTION AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The stratigraphy of the Tasmanian Tertiary Marine succession has been reviewed by Quilty (1972). The results noted in that paper are based on foraminiferal studies conducted at the University of Tasmania. Localities, sample numbers etc., mentioned here are detailed further in Quilty (op. cit.) and this paper should be read in company with that paper. This paper is the first of a projected series of three papers documenting the Tasmanian Tertiary foraminifera. Classification adopted in these papers follows closely that proposed by Loeblich and Tappan (1964a) and reviewed by them (1964b) but differs in minor respects which will be indicated where necessary. Quilty (op. cit.) noted that the first record of Tasmanian Tertiary foraminifera was by Goddard and Jensen (1907). -
Checklist, Assemblage Composition, and Biogeographic Assessment of Recent Benthic Foraminifera (Protista, Rhizaria) from São Vincente, Cape Verdes

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract We describe for the first time subtropical intertidal foraminiferal assemblages from beach sands on São Vincente, Cape Verdes. Sixty-five benthic foraminiferal species were recognised, representing 47 genera, 31 families, and 8 superfamilies. Endemic species were not recognised. The new checklist largely extends an earlier record of nine benthic foraminiferal species from fossil carbonate sands on the island. Bolivina striatula, Rosalina vilardeboana and Millettiana milletti dominated the living (rose Bengal stained) fauna, while Elphidium crispum, Amphistegina gibbosa, Quinqueloculina seminulum, Ammonia tepida, Triloculina rotunda and Glabratella patelliformis dominated the dead assemblages. The living fauna lacks species typical for coarse-grained substrates. Instead, there were species that had a planktonic stage in their life cycle. The living fauna therefore received a substantial contribution of floating species and propagules that may have endured a long transport by surface ocean currents. The dead assemblages largely differed from the living fauna and contained redeposited tests deriving from a rhodolith-mollusc carbonate facies at <20 m water depth. -

Abstract Two hundred and thirty-six benthonic species and six planktonic species are identified among Foraminifera present in Holocene sediment of Exmouth Gulf, in a water depth of 5-30 m. The benthonic microfauna comprises 20 agglutinated species (including 9 Lituolida, 1 Trochamminida, and 10 Textulariida), 74 porcellaneous species (Miliolida), and 142 hyaline species (including 4 Spirillinida, 27 Lagenida, 37 Buliminida, and 75 Rotaliida). Abundant species, at least at one site, include Ammotium australiensis, Textularia foliacea, Textularia lateralis, and Textularia oceanica among the agglutinated types; Parahauerinoides fragilissimus, Peneroplis pertusus, Planispirinella exigua, Pseudomassilina australis, Quinqueloculina arenata, Q. philippinensis, Q. sp 8, Sigmoihauerina involuta, Sorites marginalis, Triloculina tricarinata among the porcellaneous species; and Ammonia parkinsoniana, Amphistegina lessonii, A. sp cf A. papillosa, A. radiata, Asterorotalia gaimardi, Cibicides sp cf C. refulgens, Discorbinoides patelliformis, Elphidium sp cf E. advenum, E. crispum, E. sp 1, Heterostegina depressa, Operculina ammonoides, Pararotalia nipponica, and Rosalina cosymbosella among the hyaline (Rotaliida) species.

M. 1Department of Applied Geology and 2Department of Geology University of Madras, Guindy Campus, Chennai 600 025, India Abstract: The Arabian Sea is one of the most productive regions of the world ocean and hence has been the focus of attention of micropaleontologists from all over the world. A 5.4-m gravity core was retrieved onboard the CRV Sagar Kanya from off Goa, Arabian Sea, and its uppermost 50 cm examined for foraminifers. The systematic paleontology of textulariid and miliolid foraminifera from this core segment is presented with relevant remarks and comments on their ecology and distribution. Keywords: Foraminifera; Taxonomy; Textulariids; Miliolids; Ecology; Arabian Sea. Introduction: The seasonal reversal of the winds caused by the alternate heating and cooling of the Tibet Plateau controls the circulation in the Arabian Sea. It has, therefore, been extensively studied with respect to diverse aspects of both benthic and planktic foraminifers. Between June and September (summer), offshore Ekman transport and intense upwelling along the Oman and Somalia margins (Shi et al., 2000) are caused by the strong south-westerly winds that blow across the Arabian Sea. This upwelling process brings cold, nutrient-rich waters from a few hundred meters depth to the surface and considerably increases the biological productivity in the euphotic zone, making the Arabian Sea one of the most productive regions of the world ocean (Qasim, 1977). -
New Recent Foraminiferal Genera and Species from the Lagoon at Madang, Papua New Guinea
New Recent foraminiferal genera and species from the lagoon at Madang, Papua New Guinea MARTIN R. LANGER Museum of Paleontology University of California Berkley, CA.94720, U.S.A. ABSTRACT Two new genera and eight new species of benthic foraminifera are described from the shallow water, tropical lagoon of Madang, Papua New Guinea. The new hauerinid genus Pseudolachlanella is characterized by juvenile cryptoquinqueloculine, adult almost massiline arranged chambers, and a slitlike, curved aperture with parallel sides and a long, slender, curved miliolid tooth. Pitella haigi n. gen., n. sp. is a new foraminifera with cryptoquinqueloculine arranged chambers, an almost entirely pitted shell surface (pseudopores)and a rounded aperture with a short simple tooth. Among the other species described as new are four hauerinids and two agglutinated foraminifera All new species described here occur sporadically in the shallow water back- and forereef environments of the lagoon (0-55m), and live infaunally and epifaunally in well-oxygenated, fine and coarse grained biogenic sediments. They are absent in muddy, organic-rich, low-oxygen sedimentary environments within bay inlets where variations of salinity are considerable. J. Microialaeontol.
