Mid-Pleistocene Extinction of Deep-Sea Ostracoda? Mid-Pleistocene Extinction of Deep-Sea Ostracoda? A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Geology at the University of Canterbury By Frances J. Gaiger July 2006 Scanning Electron Microscope image of Bradleya sp. aff. silentium from Pleistocene sample, ODP Site 1125. Bradleya is a key genus in terms of our understanding of the induction of shallow water species into the abyss A BSTRACT A global extinction event has been documented in protozoan foraminifera in the late Pliocene to Pleistocene. The timing of the extinction event varied depending on location, however for Ocean Drilling Project Site 1125, disappearances occurred between 2.5 and 0.57 Ma, with the major decline approximately 1.1 Ma. In order to determine if this event affected benthic organisms other than protozoans, this study was undertaken to determine how podocopid ostracods (Crustacea) recovered Ocean Drilling Program Site 1125 responded. The present study was hindered by the small number of valves recovered; the fact that a large proportion of taxa found were undescribed and new to science; and the current state of taxonomic scheme that is under significant revision. These factors meant that a comprehensive comparison could not be achieved. Despite this, counts of ostracod valves and assessments of diversity from this study reveal a significant increase in both parameters from approximately 900-600 ka. Three possible causes were investigated to account for this increase, sediment type and sample size; affects of taphonomy, mainly dissolution; or an actual biotic ‘event’. Statistical analyses showed that although sample size did have some effect, it was not the sole reason for the increase in ostracod numbers. Dissolution had an expected affect on the percentage of juveniles but no correlations were found with other sample characteristics. Sedimentation rate was investigated but this also proved unrelated. Therefore, it is suggested that the increase in total ostracod valves and diversity which occurs between 900 and 600 ka was in fact a natural, biotic ‘event’. This preliminary evidence suggests that an oceanographic event that has negatively impacted on the foraminifers has had the reverse affect on the ostracod assemblage, in the sense that both population size and diversity increase during that time.

Breve definición del grupo y principales caracteres diagnósticos Según el criterio más extendido actualmente, y que aquí seguiremos, se considera a los ostrácodos como una clase (Cl. Ostracoda) del Subphylum Crustacea, perteneciente al Phylum Arthropoda. No obstante, existen autores que defienden su pertenencia, como subclase, a la clase Maxillopoda (que incluiría tam- bién a branquiuros, tantulocáridos, copépodos y cirrípedos, entre otros). Más allá de esta circunstancia, los ostrácodos pueden describirse como crustáceos de tamaño mediano a pequeño (desde los 0,2 a los 5 mm; con casos excepcionales que alcanzan los 3 cm), que poseen un ojo naupliar medial, con la segmen- tación corporal severamente reducida, entre cinco y ocho pares de apéndices y, como elemento más significativo, la presencia de un caparazón bivalvo. Aunque el caparazón contiene en sí mismo rasgos diagnósticos (tamaño, forma, ornamentación...) que ayudan a la correcta asignación taxonómica de los ostrácodos, su presencia—que obstaculiza la observación in vivo de muchos detalles diagnósticos del animal— y el pequeño tamaño de estos organismos obligan con frecuencia a la disección de los ejempla- res para su identificación, especialmente para la identificación a nivel específico.
