Biomineralization is a generic term used to indicate biological‐mediated mineral formation. In carbonate mineralization, nucleation of crystals can be: (1) controlled directly by the organisms, like in the skeletal formation of most metazoans; (2) induced by microbial communities, by indirect precipitation mediated by their metabolic activities; or (3)

PALEONTOLOGY, PALEOGEOGRAPHY, PALEOENVIRONMENT OF THE CAMPANIAN NEOGENE TETHYAN FORAMINIFERAL GENERA AND SPECIES OF ANAN A- SUBORDERS TEXTULARIINA AND MILIOLINA [PDF]
During the last four decades ago, fifty-seven (54 agglutinated and 3 porcelaneous) benthic foraminiferal species and related to 23 genera have been erected by the present author, which start at 1984, which are recoded from many countries around the ...

PALEOBIOGEOGRAPHY OF SOME EGYPTIAN AND PAKISTANIAN BENTHIC FORAMINIFERAL SPECIES IN THE NORTHERN TETHYS [PDF]
Twenty-one benthic foraminiferal species were originally erected from the Southern Tethys, 13 species from Egypt, and 8 species from Pakistan. Some of these species were recorded from different localities in the Northern Tethys: France, Spain, Italy ...

A new clupeid fish from the upper Miocene of Greece: A possible Hilsa relative from the Mediterranean [PDF]
Much remains to be learned about the past diversity and evolutionary history of the Clupeidae (herrings, shads and allies), owing to the frequently subtle differences between modern taxa and the moderate preservational quality of some fossils.

PALEONTOLOGY, STRATIGRAPHY, PALEOENVIRONMENT AND PALEOGEOGRAPHY OF SIXTY-THREE CAMPANIAN-NEOGENE TETHYAN BENTHIC FORAMINIFERAL GENERA AND SPECIES OF ANAN B- SUBORDER LAGENINA [PDF]
This study represents the second part of the erected assemblage of benthic foraminiferal genera and species of Anan, which related to the Suborder Lagenina, after the first part which belongs to the taxa of the Suborders Textulariina and Miliolina (Anan,

Mercury deposition in Western Tethys during the Carnian Pluvial Episode (Late Triassic)
The Late Triassic Carnian Pluvial Episode (CPE) was a time of biological turnover and environmental perturbations. Within the CPE interval, C-isotope and sedimentary records indicate multiple pulses of depleted carbon into the atmosphere–ocean system ...

Middle Eocene carbonate platforms of the westernmost Tethys
A study of the paleoenvironmental evolution of the middle Eocene platforms recognized in the westernmost Tethys has been carried out in the well-exposed middle Eocene succession from Sierra Espuna-Mula basin (Betic Cordillera, S Spain). Eight microfacies

PALEONTOLOGY AND EVOLUTIONARY LINEAGES OF THE DIAGNOSTIC BENTHIC FORAMINIFERAL GENUS ORTHOKARSTENIA [PDF]
This work is focused on the members of the Late Cretaceous-Early Paleogene (K-Pg) diagnostic benthic foraminiferal genus Orthokarstenia which is regionally important in paleontology and stratigraphic correlations.
