Cenomanian planktonie foraminif­era in the southern part of the Eastern Carpathians

Abstract

The writer puts forward some considerations of an evolutionary-phylogenetic character, with particular regard to planktonic Foraminifera of the Rotaliporidae family, as well as some remarks on the latter’s relation to the others families of Cretaceous planktonie Foraminifera. The main elements of Cenomanian planktonic fauna in the southern part of the Eastern Carpathians are described. Two new species of the genus Praeglobotruncana are described: Praeglobotruncana barbui n. sp. and P. prahovae n. sp.
