| Abstract: | The planktonic foraminiferal assemblage from foraminiferal limestone (ooze) dredged from the summit of one of guyots in the Magellan Seamount system of the Pacific is dominated by one-keeled species belonging to the genus Globotruncanita. The taxonomic composition of the assemblage correlates host rocks with the upper Campanian-lower Maastrichtian. One species and one subspecies are described as new taxa. |
