Fifty eight foraminiferal species of twenty three genera, including two new species (Hemigordius hyrnefjelleti sp. nov. and Midiella arctica sp. nov.) have been identified. Three foraminiferal zones have been defined, with ages of Late Asselian (Pseudofusulinella occidentalis), Sakmarian (Midiella ovata – Calcitornella heathi) and Early Artinskian (Hemigordius hyrnefjelleti – Midiella arctica). Sedimentary features and the biotic history of the studied succession records a Late Paleozoic cooling trend that stays in accordance with Pangaea’s shift to the north.}, type={Article}, title={Foraminifers from the Treskelodden Formation (Carboniferous-Permian) of south Spitsbergen}, URL={http://ochroma.man.poznan.pl/Content/110548/PDF-MASTER/PPR30-193.pdf}, keywords={Arctic, Svalbard, paleontology (foraminifers), biostratigraphy, Late Paleozoic}, }
