Abstract

This paper is divided into two parts, the first of which, entitled "Paleocene and Eocene larger Foraminifera from Barbados," is based on collections made by Dr. A. Senn in blocks of Paleocene age contained in the Joes River mud flows and the Lower and Upper Scotland formations of Eocene age. About 75 localities are represented, and 20 species were recognized, of which 17 were specifically named, and three were undetermined. In the Paleocene blocks in the Joes River mud flows seven determined and one undetermined species were recognized. In the Lower Scotland formation only one species was represented by identifiable...
