Abstract
Foraminifera are documented from the uppermost part of the essentially lagoonal Vectis Formation (Barremian to possibly early Aptian) of the Isle of Wight, southern England. Monospecific and low-diversity influxes of indigenous agglutinated taxa are identified from claystones of mudflat or subaqueous origin, and their palaeoecological significance is assessed. In contrast, reworked Upper Jurassic foraminifera are associated with coarser-grained bioclastic deposits and indicate the proximity of the Wessex Sub-basin margin, immediately to the north.
