Abstract
Two stratigraphic sections referable to the late Messinian have been identified and studied in eastern Tunisia; the first, south of Cape Bon (Salakta-SAL section), the second in the Sahel region (Wadi el Kebir–OK section). The analysis of the ostracod fauna content (assemblages) has revealed that in some stratigraphic levels some taxa are certainly attributable to the Lago-Mare fauna, while other taxa, observed in subsequent or previous stratigraphic levels, are referable to true shallow-water marine environments. From these latter shallow water marine levels, several ostracods species were recognized; some of which, due to their morphological particularities, have been described as new species.
Consequently, in this article, 24 species belonging to the genera Cytherella, Paijenborchellina, Cimbaurila, Pokornyella, Dorukella, Graptocythere, Capsacythere, Chrysocythere, Okadaleberis, Ruggieria, Cytheretta, and Neomonoceratina are described and illustrated as new.
在突尼斯东部发现并研究了两个与晚墨西尼亚期有关的地层剖面;第一次是在Bon角以南(Salakta-SAL部分),第二次是在萨赫勒地区(Wadi el kebiri - ok部分)。对介形类动物群含量(组合)的分析表明,在某些层位上,某些类群肯定属于拉各海动物群,而在后来或以前的层位上观察到的其他类群则属于真正的浅水海洋环境。从这后一层浅水中,辨认出好几种介形虫;其中一些,由于其形态上的特殊性,已被描述为新种。因此,本文将Cytherella属、Paijenborchellina属、Cimbaurila属、Pokornyella属、Dorukella属、Graptocythere属、Capsacythere属、Chrysocythere属、Okadaleberis属、Ruggieria属、Cytheretta属和Neomonoceratina属的24种描述为new。
期刊介绍:
La Revue de micropaléontologie publie 4 fois par an des articles de intérêt international, consacrés à tous les aspects de la micropaléontologie. Les textes, en anglais ou en français, sont des articles originaux, des résultats de recherche, des synthèses et mises au point, des comptes rendus de réunions scientifiques et des analyses de ouvrages. La revue se veut résolument ouverte à tous les aspects de la micropaléontologie en accueillant des travaux traitant de la systématique des microfossiles (et de leurs équivalents actuels), des bactéries aux microrestes de vertébrés, et de toutes leurs applications en sciences biologiques et géologiques.
