Foraminifera of the Midway Formation in Texas (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781025659602)

"Foraminifera of the Midway Formation in Texas" is a seminal micropaleontological study that provides an exhaustive examination of the protozoan fauna found within the Paleocene deposits of the Texas Gulf Coastal Plain. Written by Helen Jeanne Plummer, this comprehensive work catalogues and describes a vast array of foraminiferal species, offering detailed insights into their morphological characteristics and stratigraphic distribution.

The text serves as a critical resource for understanding the geological history and biostratigraphy of the Midway Formation, a significant sequence of marine strata in the American South. Through meticulous observation and systematic classification, the author establishes a foundational record of microfossils that assist in the correlation of geological units and the interpretation of ancient marine environments. This work is essential for geologists, paleontologists, and researchers focused on microfauna, providing a detailed snapshot of the diverse life forms that inhabited the early Cenozoic seas. It remains a valuable reference for anyone studying the evolutionary history of invertebrates or the complex sedimentary layers of the Texas region.
