Abstract

Babazadeh & Cluzel (2023) studied two stratigraphic sections from the Eocene deposits of the southwest of Shahrekord region (Zagros region, Iran). According to the biostratigraphic ranges of larger benthic foraminifera, the authors suggested in total three assemblage zones assigned to the Ypresian-Bartonian and Bartonian. In a previous contribution, Babazadeh (2022) described three new species of agglutinated conical foraminifera from the Eocene biostratigraphic framework in the Mahallat region of central Iran. It is demonstrated herein that the identified larger benthic foraminifera in both publications need reassessment with respect to taxonomy and biostratigraphic outcomes.
