The biota includes planktonic and benthonic foraminifera, ostracods, diatoms, radiolaria, sponge spicules and small gastropods (Plate XI). No difference was observed in faunal abundance or diversity between the top and bottom subsamples at each site. Mottling and the presence of ? worm tubes in the sand indicate extensive bioturbation, resulting in homogenity of sediments and samples.
