Abstract Large benthic foraminifera are major carbonate components in tropical platforms, important producers, stratigraphic tools and powerful bioindicators (proxies) of environmental change. The application large coral reef environments has gained considerable momentum recent years. These modern ecological assessments often carried out by micropalaeontologists or ecologists with expertise the identification foraminifera. However, have been under‐represented favour macro reef‐builders, for...

ABSTRACT Comparison of ultrastructures in Pliocene periplatform carbonates from the Bahamas with Silurian limestones Gotland (Sweden) reveals that despite differences primary sediment composition and age, they reflect a similar mechanism lithification. In both sequences calcite microspar was formed as cement at an early stage marine burial diagenesis. Neither significant compression nor meteoric influence are necessary for formation microspar. A model is proposed process microsparitic...
