The oceans are losing oxygen (O 2), and oxygen minimum zones are expanding due to
climate warming (lower O 2 solubility) and eutrophication related to agriculture. This trend is …

Foraminifera are commonly defined as marine testate protists, and their diversity is mainly
assessed on the basis of the morphology of their agglutinated or mineralized tests. Diversity …

This work contributes to the ongoing work aiming at confirming benthic foraminifera as a
biological quality element. In this study, benthic foraminifera from intertidal and transitional …

The rapid urbanization and industrialization of Kuwait and the consequent effluent
discharges into marine environments have resulted in a degradation of water and sediment …

Genetic characterisation (SSU rRNA genotyping) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM)
imaging of individual tests were used in tandem to determine the modern species richness …

Rotaliida is the most diversified order of modern benthic foraminifera, comprising 73 extant
families. The current classification of Rotaliida is based exclusively on morphological …

This study focuses on the foraminiferal distribution on intertidal mudflats of two contrasted
estuaries (Auray and Vie) along the French Atlantic coast. In both estuaries, the foraminiferal …

The high morphological variability observed in the genus Ammonia, together with its global
distribution, led to the description of a plethora of species, subspecies, and varieties. Until …
