Benthic foraminifera of surface samples and sediment cores off Senegal and Gambia, West Africa

Listed in PANGAEA and DataCite — shown once because both records carry DOI 10.1594/pangaea.548467

Water depth zonation of fifty nine benthonic foraminiferal species in marine sediment surfaces has been described.

Description

Some species are combined to groups which mark particular depth zones: an upper and lower shelf-fauna, an upper and lower slope fauna, and a shelf-slope fauna. Dependence on latitude could be ascertained for Textularia panamensis, and submergence effects for Hyalinea balthica.
