Help with ID needed. This specimen is from the Tortonian (Miocene) of Northern Germany/Denmark. Is it Globigerinella obesa ?

Upper Cretaceous foraminifera from glacier-displaced strata near Rostock, Northeastern Germany. They were collected by Ralf-Rainer Schulz. We took the first images, which can be seen at foraminifera.eu/collection.php… #foraminifera #microfossils #Cretaceous #paleontology #fossils

These days we have passed the 23,000 mark in our database. A big thank you to all contributors from all over the world for sending sediments, specimens, images and help with identifications. #foraminifera #microfossils #fossils #MarineLife #paleontology #MarineScience

@giulia_molina Cassidulinids are difficult to differentiate, there is a paper by Cage 202? giving some insight.

@ForamsEU Thank you Michael! In the end I remembered that I took this screenshot from their book. Do you already find this species? Would you recognise from a microscope photo?

Does anyone know which book this page is from? :) Or any clue of which species is the photo number 18? Thank you!!!

Foraminifera or just pseudofossil rock chips ??? I picked about 50 specimens from 10g of a disintegrated Jurassic shale. I think these are compressed agglutinated forams. Whats your opinion ? #foraminifera #microfossils #Jurassic #fossils #MarineLife #paleontology

I found several shallow water foraminifera as this Ammonia in a sand from the German Pre-Alps. They prove its marine origin from the Paratethys ocean. The Paratethys covered about 18mya ago vast areas north of the Alps. #foraminifera #MarineLife #fossils #microfossils #Miocene

Today under the microscope aged ~155.000.000 years old: The foraminifera Epistomina ornata (I think) from the Kimmeridgian, Dorset coast, UK. See more at foraminifera.eu/single.php?no=… #foraminifera #microfossil #micropalaeontology #Jurassic

Nodosaria lagenifera. See foraminifera.eu/collection.php… #foraminifera #NorthSea #Norway #MarineLife

Which paper describes the difference between Amphistegina gibbosa and A. lessonii ? #foraminifera #protist #florida #shelf

It is time to start preparing for the AGM! 🎉 This year's meeting will happen in Kraków from November 6th to 9th.

Some creatures build their homes on a quartz pebble. See more at foraminifera.eu/single.php?no=… #foraminifera #MarineLife #NorthSea #protists #benthic

@TheDJ_King Sorry

@ForamsEU Thanks. Also this is Dan not David.

So, I was looking through foraminifera.eu to help ID something, when I found that one of my micrographs has been uploaded and credited to an M.N. Abd Malek and says it was found in Malaysia. Like, this is one of my images that someone else has foraminifera.eu/single.php?no=…

@TheDJ_King Dear David, it is deleted. Michael

@TheDJ_King Dear David, thanks for informing. I will delete it. Michael

For our Catalog of modern Greater North Sea foraminifera we found this Homalohedra williamsoni. Send us your material to fill gaps: foraminifera.eu/cns.php #foraminifera #ForamFriday #NorthSea
