Infralittoral benthic foraminifera from northern Chile - Journal of Iberian Geology
This communication analyzes the distribution of benthic foraminifera in the infralittoral zone of northern Chile located between 26° and 29°S at depths between 7 and 12 m. Twenty-six taxa have been id...

Help with ID needed. This specimen is from the Tortonian (Miocene) of Northern Germany/Denmark. Is it Globigerinella obesa ?
Upper Cretaceous foraminifera from glacier-displaced strata near Rostock, Northeastern Germany. They were collected by Ralf-Rainer Schulz. We took the first images, which can be seen at foraminifera.eu/collection.p... #foraminifera #microfossils #paleontology #Cretaceous
I found this planktic foraminifera in a Turonian slab. It was sheared off by glaciers, transported + dumped north of Berlin. Is it Archaeoglobigerina cretacea ? Maybe a professional can tell. // See foraminifera.eu/collection.p... #foraminifera #microfossils #fossils #paleontology #Cretaceous

These days we have passed the 23,000 mark in our database. A big thank you to all contributors from all over the world for sending sediments, specimens, images and help with identifications. #foraminifera #microfossils #fossils #MarineLife #paleontology #MarineScience
Foraminifera or just pseudofossil rock chips ??? I picked about 50 specimens from 10g of a disintegrate Jurassic shale. I think these are compressed agglutinated forams. Whats your opinion ? #foraminifera #microfossils #Jurassic #fossils #MarineLife #paleontology
I found several shallow water foraminifera as this Ammonia in a sand from the German Pre-Alps. They prove its marine origin from the Paratethys ocean. The Paratethys covered about 18mya ago vast areas north of the Alps. #foraminifera #MarineLife #fossils #microfossils #Miocene
Today under the microscope aged ~155.000.000 years old: The foraminifera Epistomina ornata (I think) from the Kimmeridgian, Dorset coast, UK. See more at foraminifera.eu/single.php?n... #foraminifera #microfossil #micropalaeontology #Jurassic
One of my fave agglutinated #foraminifera Recurvoidella bradyi (Robertson, 1891; superseded Haplophragmoides bradyi) x180 from Loch Sunart, Scotland. Amazes me how #forams are so particular about grain mineralogy & size. This one has a smooth, shiny test of tiny grains & is usually a browny-orange.
Kimmeridge Clay Foraminifera. Check out our interactive online poster, which also hangs in the Etches Collection in Kimmeridge. Dorset, UK: . foraminifera.eu/kcf-poster.h... . #foraminifera #jurassic #microfossils #paleontology #fossils
We are looking for samples (20-50g) from the English Channel to enlarge our catalog. Image: The foraminifera Elphidium from Swanage, UK. Our catalog of North Sea forams contains 1000+ figured specimens: foraminifera.eu/cns.php #foraminifera #MarineLife #MarineBiology #MarineEcology #NorthSea
I am eager to build a community of marine educators/communicators, and ocean literacy researchers and practitioners here. I created this starter pack. If I included you and you want to be removed, let me know! Reply if you want to be added. Let's see if we can grow the #marineeducationsky
the foraminifera Hyrrokkin, feeding on corals. Read my paper on foraminifera associated with cold water corals off Mauritania: www.researchgate.net/publication/... #MarineLife #CoralScience #foraminifera #Mauritania #marinebiology
The foraminifera Nodosaria lagenifera. See more at foraminifera.eu/collection.p... #foraminifera #MarineLife
Fica aqui uma fotinha de uma espécie linda. Cornuspira foliacea (Philippi, 1844) é rara mas quando aparece 😍😍 #DCBR #foraminifera
The foraminifera Amphistegina, common in the Florida shelf. See foraminifera.eu/single.php?n... #foraminifera #marinelife #shelf #florida #protist
Some creatures build their homes on a quartz pebble. See more at foraminifera.eu/single.php?n... #foraminifera #MarineLife #NorthSea #Science
Thanks to our contributors we passed 22000 entries. Check it out at Foraminifera.eu #protistsonsky #MarineLife #Foraminifera
For our Catalog of modern Greater North Sea foraminifera we found this Homalohedra williamsoni. Send us your material to fill gaps: foraminifera.eu/cns.php #foraminifera #ForamFriday #NorthSea
