THANETIAN AND EARLY YPRESIAN ORTHOPHRAGMINES (FORAMINIFERA: DISCOCYCLINIDAE AND ORBITOCLYPEIDAE) FROM THE CENTRAL WESTERN TETHYS (TURKEY, ITALY AND BULGARIA) AND THEIR REVISED TAXONOMY AND BIOSTRATIGRAPHY

THANETIAN AND EARLY YPRESIAN ORTHOPHRAGMINES (FORAMINIFERA: DISCOCYCLINIDAE AND ORBITOCLYPEIDAE) FROM THE CENTRAL WESTERN TETHYS (TURKEY, ITALY AND BULGARIA) AND THEIR REVISED TAXONOMY AND BIOSTRATIGRAPHY

The rich orthophragminid assemblages from the upper Thanetian and lower Ypresian of Turkey are discussed together with the coeval faunas from Spilecco (N Italy) and Beloslav (Bulgaria).
