Abstract
Quaternary deep-sea ostracods supply invaluable data for the understanding of both hydrological and sedimentary processes in the continental slope. A huge portion of western South Atlantic bathyal regions is still poorly explored with respect to deep-sea ostracod research. This article contributes to the study of the assemblage ostracod of the Upper Pleistocene of five piston cores recovered in the Cone of Rio Grande, Pelotas Basin, Brazil. Taxonomic analysis revealed 21 species belonging to 13 genera: Cytherella, Macropyxis, Argilloecia, Paracytherois, Cytheropteron, Rimacytheropteron, Eucytherura, Loxoconchidea, Xestoleberis, Apatihowella, Henryhowella, Poseidonamicus and Krithe. The assemblages are quite similar to those registered in southwestern Brazilian bathyal regions. A taxon left in open nomenclature is probably a new genus and species. Eucytherura fossapunctata nov. sp. is here described.
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.
