Please help in the identification of the taxa associated with Distichoplax and other algal fragments observed in the attached images. I have marked with arrows where specific demarcation is required.
Two of are benthic forams (2nd, 4th, and 6th pictures).The others I don't know.
1) a dasycladacean alga;
2) not sure, could be either an ostreid bivalve or a bryozoan; would need to be observed directly;
3) a bryozoan;
4) probably Daviesina;
5) don't know...;
6) seems an orthophragminid.
Hello,
photograph no. 2; a fossil pointed by arrow seems like Diatom.
Photograph no. 3; Echinoid and mollusc fragments.
Photograph no. 1 and 4; looks like Echinoid spines.
Photograph no. 5; Oolites or Pisolites depends on their scale.
Photograph no. 6; fragments of mollusc.
