(2022). This group of larger benthic foraminifera (LBF) is widely used in the application of biostratigraphy to Eocene shallow-water successions. It displays a noteworthy diversification rate over the Eocene and a wide geographical occurrence (Samanta, 1993; Hottinger, 2001; Drobne et al., 2011) that extends throughout the tropical and subtropical shelves of the western to eastern...
