SUMMARYBased on the distribution of several stratigraphically important species three distinct larger foraminiferal zones are recognized in the Middle-Upper Eocene succession of Garo Hills, Assam, India. A comparison of these zones with larger foraminiferal assemblages from other Middle-Upper Eocene successions in the Indian region is attempted and observations are made on the demarcation of the Middle and Upper Eocene boundary and the classification of the Upper Eocene succession in this region.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
