“…Species typical of clusters A and B plot on the negative side of the first axis and are associated with the fine sediment fractions (silt and clay), but also with gravel. The same preference by P. corrugata, S. vivipara and S. emaciatum for pelitic sediment was recognised by Little & van Hengstum (2019). This indicates that they prefer to attach to larger fragments associated with pelitic sediment.…”

“…Consequently, the high variability of sediment texture may not be attributed to high spatial variability of hydrodynamic conditions; actually, a low-energy environment may be supposed in the cave for the general presence of pelitic sediment (Table 2). Also, the micrite coat, which mainly constitutes the fine sediment fraction and is likely due to autochthonous carbonate precipitation as recognised in marine caves of Mallorca Island and Bermuda (Fornós et al, 2009;Little & van Hengstum, 2019), confirms such conditions. The clear succession of distinct foraminiferal assemblages along the cave also indicates the absence of significant post-mortem transport, which would have caused the mixing of fauna from different sections of the cave.…”
