A deep-sea foraminiferal assemblage scattered through the late Cenozoic of Antarctic Peninsula and its biostratigraphic and biogeographic implications
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 January 2022
Abstract
Our knowledge of the foraminiferal fossil record of Antarctica is notoriously patchy but still offers us an overview of its Cenozoic faunas. Few occurrences have been reported for the continent, with deep-sea assemblages described mainly for its eastern portion. Here we describe 21 taxa of large agglutinated foraminifers from the Miocene Hobbs Glacier Formation and the Plio-Pleistocene Weddell Sea Formation on Seymour Island, West Antarctica, including the gigantic Ammodiscus vastus new species. Most of them consist of genera or species typical of deep-sea agglutinated assemblages. All specimens are completely filled and partially covered by lithified micrite. This, along with the postfill fragmentation of some tests, indicates their re-elaboration from older deposits. Because all of these foraminifers share the same taphonomic features and most of them represent taxa associated with deep-sea settings, they probably represent a flysch-type assemblage from an unknown deposit that was eroded and had its microfossils scattered through post-Paleogene sediments. A Paleocene age for this putative assemblage is indicated by the presence of Reticulophragmiun garcilassoi (Frizzell, 1943), a Paleocene index fossil, and by its association with the Cretaceous–Paleocene Ammodiscus pennyi Cushman and Jarvis, 1928. If taken as a coherent foraminiferal assemblage, it represents one of the few deep-sea assemblages known for West Antarctica, and the first flysch-type assemblage recognized for the Antarctic Cenozoic. In addition, it would show that the Paleocene foraminiferal communities of the West Antarctica's deep-sea floor were more like their Pacific counterparts than their Atlantic equivalents.
