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.p… #foraminifera #microfossils #Cretaceous #paleontology #fossils

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

Read our recent blog post to find out how Comet Yxlon’s advanced CT technology helped a team of researchers identify and categorise tiny fossils within a section of Holstein Rock, without having to crack open the rock itself. yxlon.comet.tech/en/blog/hol… @Leibniz_LIB @ForamsEU

Together with the Etches Collections in Kimmeridge we work on foraminifera from the Kimmeridge Formation. We start by building an illustrated list of species, so far in open nomenclature: foraminifera.eu/loc.php?loca… // #foraminifera #Jurassic #micropaleontology #fossil #paleontology

Scientists can recreate the climates of the past through tiny marine shells called “Forams” found on the ocean floor. Student researchers from Earth & Environmental Sciences demonstrate via dance how they work with these creatures. #CalLutheranCares
