Biostratigraphy and palaeoecology of the marine Pleistocene of Rhodes, Greece: Scleractinia, Serpulidae, Mollusca and Brachiopoda

Abstract: A biostratigraphical and palaeoecological study of the Pleistocene marine fauna from the Kallithea area (northeast Rhodes, Greece) has been conducted. In this area, the Lindos Bay Clay and the Cape Arkhangelos Calcarenite, which constitute the Rhodes Formation, are well exposed in ancient quarries. The study has revealed the presence of 120 mollusc taxa, <i>viz </i>scaphopods (3 taxa), bivalves (65), gastropods (52) and indeterminate polyplacophorans, together with brachiopods (6 taxa), corals (3) … Show more

“…depth and habitat), and the relevant literature sources. Information about fossil records of Brachiopoda from Greece was extracted from Logan et al (2004), Nielsen et al (2006), Koskeridou (2007), and references therein. The classification follows WoRMS and Emig et al (2013).…”

“…T. communis, C. gibba and M. spinifera are the most common species. The latter two species thrive in dysoxic muddy bottoms (Nielsen et al 2006). C. gibba is considered amongst the most tolerant to oxygen depletion (Diaz and Rosenberg 1995).…”

“…Propeamussium sp., Cuspidaria cuspidata, C. rostrata, Ennucula corbuloides, Saccella commutata, Roxania utriculus and Kelliella miliaris represent circalittoral environments (50-400 m) and a deep water ventilation (Perna 2003;Nielsen et al 2006 …”

“…In fact, most of taxa hold a too-long temporal distribution, from Miocene to Pleistocene, or they are even extant species. Moreover, benthic mollusc's distribution is driven by ecological and bathymetric parameters, as well as by the substrate lithology [61][62][63][64][65]. Two specific points, generating bias in the past, need to be remarked here.…”
