متن کاملSystematic Paleontology, Distribution and Abundance of Cenozoic Benthic Foraminifera from Kish Island, Persian Gulf, Iran
Abstract Foraminifera are one of the most important fossil microorganisms in the Persian Gulf. During micropaleontological investigations in 5 sampling stations around the Kish Island, 14 genera and 15 species of dead Cenozoic benthic foraminifera were determined and described. Next to these assemblages, other organisms, such as microgastropods and spines of echinids were also looked into. In ...
متن کاملOccurrence and biogeographic aspects of Melipona quinquefasciata in NE Brazil (Hymenoptera, Apidae).
The stingless bee Melipona quinquefasciata is not included among the nine bee species of Melipona described in literature of NE Brazil. However, reports of some farmers raised suspicion on the occurrence of M. quinquefasciata in the state of Ceará, in NE Brazil. Investigations were carried out from July 1997 to September 2000, by means of trips to the areas of probable occurrence of this bee sp...
متن کاملTrans-Amazon Drilling Project (TADP): origins and evolution of the forests, climate, and hydrology of the South American tropics
This article presents the scientific rationale for an ambitious ICDP drilling project to continuously sample Late Cretaceous to modern sediment in four different sedimentary basins that transect the equatorial Amazon of Brazil, from the Andean foreland to the Atlantic Ocean. The goals of this project are to document the evolution of plant biodiversity in the Amazon forests and to relate biotic ...
