To address these constraints, we developed a free online undergraduate course in micropaleontology centered on a pedagogical collection of 136 numerically reconstructed 3D microfossils. The 3D models, acquired mainly via X-ray microcomputed tomography and other advanced imaging techniques, represent diverse taxonomic groups such as foraminifera, ostracods, coccolithophores, diatoms, and pollen. Hosted on the Sketchfab platform and integrated within the Moodle-based Unisciel learning management system, the course is structured into taxonomical chapters featuring learning texts, observation activities with annotated 3D models, and evaluation quizzes. Despite limitations including the absence of scale bars on embedded models and the relatively low diversity due to scanning costs and technical challenges, the course offers an innovative pedagogical approach combining remote access to interactive 3D microfossils with structured learning and continuous assessment. This resource aims to improve micropaleontology education by facilitating detailed morphological observation and taxonomic identification remotely, overcoming common barriers in traditional teaching settings. Preliminary feedback highlights the potential for blended learning adaptation and underscores the need for ongoing evaluation to optimize educational outcomes. The course and 3D collection serve as a foundation for further development of digital micropaleontology tools, promoting wider accessibility and fostering enhanced scientific training in Earth and Life Sciences.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":45442,"journal":{"name":"REVUE DE MICROPALEONTOLOGIE","volume":"89 ","pages":"Article 100868"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145105539","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Consequently, we have only vague information about their diversity, distribution, and affinities to the North Hemisphere assemblages. In order to contribute to the improvement of this knowledge, this work presents a study on Late Permian Darwinulocopina from the Rio do Rasto Formation, Paraná Basin, Brazil. The vertebrate fauna associated indicates a Lopingian age for these deposits which are interpreted as a delta front to delta top environment. Nine species of darwinulocopines were recorded in the studied sample, some of them very abundant, while others very rare and represented only by a few specimens. The superfamily Darwinuloidea is represented by the genera <em>Paleodarwinula</em> Molostovskaya and <em>Wjatkellina</em> Molostovskaya, and the Suchonelloidea is represented by the genera <em>Dvinella</em> Molostovskaya and <em>Prasuchonella</em> Molostovskaya. Two new species are described: <em>Paleodarwinula moliyae</em> nov. sp. and <em>P. gregorysohni</em> nov. sp. Additionally, the occurrence of two species previously described from the Eastern European Platform (<em>Wjatkellina fragiloides</em> Zekina and <em>Prasuchonella sulacensis</em> Starozhilova) and one described in North America (<em>Paleodarwinula hollandi</em> [Scott]) demonstrate possible biostratigraphic and paleoenvironmental comparisons between the Paraná Basin and Russian Platform Assemblages, as well as North American ones.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":45442,"journal":{"name":"REVUE DE MICROPALEONTOLOGIE","volume":"89 ","pages":"Article 100865"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145105538","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The genus <em>Tekkeina</em> is emended to include a facultative uncoiling and branching adult test part. Test sizes of > 5.0 mm for the uncoiling specimens, although displaying a simple internal structure, means that <em>T. anatoliensis</em>, can be considered a larger benthic foraminifer. The previous suprageneric classification within the Schlumbergerinidae Mikhalevich & Kaminski of the subclass Tubothalamana is rejected. Displaying striking similarities to <em>Navarella</em> Ciry & Rat (Maastrichtian of Spain), and <em>Neonavarella</em> Giusberti et al. (Thanetian of Italy), <em>Tekkeina</em> is placed into the same family, the Ammobaculinidae Saidova of the subclass Globothalamana, re-instating the original taxonomic assignment. The three genera display a convergent evolution within similar palaeoenvironments and facies as autochthonous elements in limestones with planktonic foraminifera and calcisphaerulids in hemipelagic to bathyal environments. The Santonian age of the Iranian specimens confirms its biostratigraphic utility.

These impact the fringing coral ecosystems with nutrient-rich sewages, industrial effluents and surface run-offs through network of rivers and canals. The FORAM Index (FI), is a single metric index that evaluates the health status of reef environments by combining the abundance ratios of the heterotrophic, opportunistic, and symbiont-bearing taxa in a specialized relationship. Four regions of Hong Kong were investigated— Northeastern Sai Kung, East Sai Kung, Lantau and Southern Hong Kong. A total of 61 genera of habitat specific benthic foraminifera were identified. The stress-tolerant heterotrophs were abundant at all stations. The symbiont-bearing taxa, dominated by <em>Amphistegina</em> which share similar ecosystem functions with the corals, are abundant at few sites in East Sai Kung and Northeastern Sai Kung regions. The opportunistic taxa, strongly represented by <em>Elphidium</em> and <em>Ammonia</em>, were recorded at all sites. East Sai Kung region has two stations with FI > 4, meaning that the environment can support coral vitality, while the rest are intermediate (2 ≤ FI< 4). In Northeastern Sai Kung, only two stations have FI < 2. while the remaining three stations are intermediate. All Lantau stations are below FI = 2, and cannot support coral recovery. Majority of the Southern Hong Kong sample stations are below FI = 2. The FI has shown that all the sites are at different stages of impacts and the majority may not be suitable for coral recovery and growth.
