Benthic foraminifers are studied from the Lower and Middle Jurassic of the western Basque-Cantabrian Basin (sections Tudanca, Aguilar de Campoó and Barrios de Villadiegos). Five benthic foraminiferal assemblages are recognized, each one related to a specifi c trophic palaeoenvironment created by palaeoceanography and relative sea-level change. The Astacolus-Lingulina-assemblage occurs in Lower Sinemurian transgressive deposits with high wave-energy. The Laevidentalina-Eoguttulina-assemblage is…

Palaeoclimatic and biotic changes during the Aalenian (Middle Jurassic) at the southern Laurasian Seaway (Basque-Cantabrian Basin, northern Spain).
The uppermost Toarcian–lowermost Bajocian deposits have been studied in 10 sections located in the western part of the Basque–Cantabrian Basin (northern Spain). The studied 276 successive recorded …
Lower Toarcian ammonite and foraminifera assemblages in the San Miguel de Aguayo Section (Basque-Cantabrian Basin, Spain)
We present the biostratigraphical events, ammonites and foraminifera from the Pliensbachian (Spinatum Chronozone) to the Toarcian (Bifrons Chronozone) in San Miguel de Aguayo. We sampled the profile…

This paper provides the first record of isolated foraminiferal assemblages from the continuous Aalenian–lower Bajocian succession from the pelagic region of the Neotethys. The studied Tűzkövesárok…
Bentho-planktonic evidence from the Austrian Alps for a decline in sea-surface carbonate production at the end of the Triassic
A high-resolution micropalaeontological study, combined with geochemical and sedimentological analyses was performed on the Tiefengraben, Schlossgraben and Eiberg sections (Austrian Alps) in order to…

Abstract This paper presents a high-resolution micropalaeontological study, integrated with geochemical and sedimentological analyses of the Triassic–Jurassic (Tr–J) transition at the Doniford…
The Global Boundary Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) for Base of the Bathonian Stage (Middle Jurassic), Ravin du Bes Section, SE France
The Bathonian GSSP is defined at the base of limestone bed RB071 in the Ravin du Bes Section, Bas-Auran area, southern Subalpine Chains (France). This section satisfies most of the requirements…
Formal proposal for the Bathonian GSSP (Middle Jurassic) in the Ravin du Bès Section (Bas-Auran, SE France)
The Bathonian Global Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) is proposed at the base of limestone bed RB071 (bed 23 in Sturani 1967) in the Ravin du Bès Section (43° 57′ 38′′ N, 6° 18′ 55′′ E), Bas-Auran…

Benthic foraminifers: proxies or problems?: A review of paleocological concepts
TLDR
It is concluded that species distribution with depth is mainly a function of organic flux and oxygenation, and paleobathymetry should not be based on individual marker species, but preferably on quantitative assemblage characteristics such as P/B ratios.
