New Rotaliids (Benthic Foraminifera) From the Late Cretaceous of the Pyrenees in Northeastern Spain

Biostratigraphy and evolution of larger rotaliid foraminifera in the Cretaceous–Palaeogene transition of the southern Oman Mountains

“…However, the architecture of this genus should be addressed because the main traits are not detailed in the original description. Rotalispira acuta Consorti et al ., 2017b shows architectural features that are similar to those of R. scarsellai ; for example, see the incipient double‐keeled test in Hottinger 2014, fig. 5.1–22.…”

“…In our opinion, the recently described Cretaceous species Rotalispira vitigliana Consorti et al ., 2017a and R. maxima Consorti et al ., 2017a should be restudied and their generic attribution re‐evaluated as they appear to show an umbilical structure that is dissimilar to the one of the type species of the genus; both seem to lack any kind of umbilical cavity. The genus Rotalispirella Consorti et al ., 2017b could also be included in the new subfamily, because of the presence of thin umbilical piles and poorly developed interpile cavities (see Hottinger 2014, figs 5.13 and 5.25). However, the architecture of this genus should be addressed because the main traits are not detailed in the original description.…”

Changing directions of the tectonic structures, consistent paleomagnetic directions at the NE imbricated margin of Stable Adria

“…Standard thin sections were used for sedimentological analysis and interpretation following the descriptive terminology for carbonate rocks is after Dunham (1962) and Embry and Klovan (1971). The biostratigraphic framework is based on various descriptions of benthic foraminifera (Velić, 2007; including the newest papers like Schlagintweit, 2008;Consorti et al, 2017;Schlagintweit and Rashidi, 2017, Moro et al, 2018, Granero et al, 2019 and planktonic foraminifera (Premoli Silva and Varga, 2004). Because the biostratigraphic range of some the identified species were modified from the time when the geological maps were issued, the discrepancies in age interpretation are indicated in Supplementary Table 1.…”

“…The complete list of sampled locations on Brač, Hvar, Korčula and Mljet islands. Each location is correlated with the location number, the age attribution (after geological maps and references Velić, 2007;Schlagintweit, 2008;Consorti et al, 2017;Schlagintweit and Rashidi, 2017;Moro et al, 2018;Granero et al, 2019) and the sedimentary texture (after Dunham, 1962, modified by Embry andKlovan, 1971) and Flügel (2010).…”
