Agglutinated Foraminifera (Silurian and Early Devonian) from Borenore and Windellama, New South Wales

WA Museum Records and Supplements | Updated 9 years ago

Abstract - Ten species of agglutinated foraminifers are documented from the Boree Creek Limestone and the Mirrabooka Formation (Wenlock, ranuliformis Zone) and the Wallace Shale (early Ludlow, variabilis Zone) in central New South Wales. Fifteen species of agglutinated foraminifers are documented from the Windellama Limestone (Pridoli-Lochkovian, ?eosteinhornesis-delta zones) in southeastern New South Wales. Four species are common to both faunas; two new species, Hyperammina leptalea and Hemisphaerammina crassa, are described. The stratigraphic range of the forms described is discussed in relation to established conodont zonation.
