Abstract

Foraminifera of the Suborders Textulariina and Miliolina and the Superfamily Nodosariacea are recorded from samples of all known Tasmanian marine Oligo-Miocene sections. Thirteen species of agglutinated foraminifera are identified specifically and one category is left in open nomenclature. Thirty species of porcellanous foraminifera (including CrenuZostomina banksi n. gen., n. sp.) are recorded and there are eight open categories. The Nodosariacea is represented by 63 identified species (including Lagena tasmaniae n. sp.) and 10 categories in open nomenclature.
Information on each species includes original citation, synonymy of Australian identifications, remarks where necessary and occurrence and age in Tasmania. All identified forms are figured.
