Foraminifera of Rocas Alijos

  • Chapter
Rocas Alijos

Part of the book series: Monographiae Biologicae ((MOBI,volume 75))

Abstract

Numerous studies have described the distribution of foraminifera off Baja California, the mainland of Mexico, and in the Gulf of California (Cushman and McCulloch, 1939, 1940, 1942, 1948, 1950; Lalicker and McCulloch, 1940; Natland, 1950; Walton, 1955; Bandy, 1961, 1963; Brenner, 1962; Phleger and Ewing, 1962; Phleger, 1964, 1965; Church, 1968; Lankford and Phleger, 1973; Crouch and Poag, 1987). However, these studies have all dealt with coastal forms. At present, very little is known about foraminifera inhabiting regions near islands which lie at great distances from the mainland.

Note: The specimens recovered in this study resemble the species described as Dyocibicides uniserialis Thalmann (Thalmann, 1932, Eclog. Geol. Helv. 25:309). However, this name has been ruled invalid according to the International Rules of Zoological Nomenclature. Although it remains unclear, it is assumed that Dyocibicides variabilis is now the appropriate name for the species.
