Results of microfaunal analyses and SEM photographs of selected foraminifera of cores LEF 44A and LEF 44B. Stratigraphy slightly differs from core LEF 44. A distinct increase of diversity is documented from the lower part of the washover sequence. Here, a mixture of species from different foraminiferal assemblages is evident, including lagoonal species as well as abundant open marine species. Several planktonic species and species indicative of greater water depths were also found. For legend see Fig. 6.
