PALEONTOLOGY, STRATIGRAPHY, PALEOENVIRONMENT AND PALEOGEOGRAPHY OF FORTY-ONE CAMPANIAN-NEOGENE TETHYAN PLANKTIC AND BENTHIC FORAMINIFERAL GENERA AND SPECIES OF ANAN C- SUBORDERS GLOBIGERININA AND ROTALIINA

Abstract

This study represents the third part of the erected assemblage of planktic and benthic foraminiferal genera and species of Anan, which related to the Suborders Globigerinina and Rotaliina, after the first and second parts which belongs to the taxa of the Suborders Textulariina, Miliolina and Lagenina (Anan, manuscripts). In this study, eight Plummerita planktic foraminiferal species were erected from Egypt (Misr), Tunisia, Italy, Spain, Caribbean (P. haggagae, P. hodae, P. kellerae, P. premolisilvae, P. elkefensis, P. caribbeanica, P. spainica, P. tunisica), and more one species of Turborotalia (T. semicunialensis). Moreover, thirty-three Rotaliid benthic foraminiferal species were erected from fifteen localities from Northern Tethys (USA, Mexico, Caribbean, Spain, France, Poland, Italy), and Southern Tethys (Chile, Argentina, Tunisia, Egypt, UAE, Iraq, Iran, Pakistan). Three of the identified Rotaliid species are believed here to be new: Orthokarstenia striata, Pleurostomella waeli and Woodella jawdati.
