“…This may be the reason why these species have sometimes been observed as high as the base of the Albian. Such forms have already been found at this level at other sites and have been noted by other authors (e.g., Miles and Orr, 1980;G. caseyi, in Michael, 1972).…”

The Early Cretaceous series of Site 549 have been analyzed from both an ecological and a chronostratigraphical viewpoint. Lithology and microfaunal assemblages allow the division of these deposits into two parts. The lower part extends from the lower Barremian to the basal upper Barremian and possibly down into the upper Hauterivian. Three foraminiferal associations suggest an orderly evolution from a low-energy, littoral environment, in which continental influences dominated, to progressively more open marine conditions. A dolosparite bed (which has not yet been dated) separates these synrift deposits from lower to basal middle Albian postrift sediments that developed in a pelagic bathyal environment on the middle to nearby lower continental slope.

“…These features are present in the Site 766 specimens and in those recorded by Playford et al (1975) from the "Great Artesian Basin." The specimens identified from DSDP sites as H. plαnispirα by Herb (1974), Gradstein (1978), Caron (1978), and Miles and Orr (1980) are not conspecific with the topotype figured by Loeblich and Tappan. These belong to an unrelated species referred here to Hedbergella cf.…”

“…At both sites, foraminifera are common in the uppermost sediment core and lowermost carbonate-rich beds overlying basement but are absent in most of the remaining section (Miles and Orr, 1980). Radiolarians and other siliceous microfossils are common, (Bukry, 1980).…”
