Wylie Poag published the book Ecological Atlas of the Benthic Foraminifera of the Gulf of Mexico. In this new volume, Poag has revised and updated the atlas, incorporating three decades of extensive data collections from the open Gulf and from an additional seventeen estuarine systems to cover species of benthic foraminifera from more than eight thousand sample stations. Benthic Foraminifera of the Gulf of Mexico features 68 plates of scanning electron photomicrographs, 64 color figures, and a large color foldout map, indicating species distribution of forams.Harte Research Institute for Gulf of Mexico Studies series.ForaminiferaEcologyMexico, Gulf ofForaminiferaMexico, Gulf ofGeographical distributionPaleoecologyMexico, Gulf ofForaminifera, FossilMexico, Gulf ofForaminiferaEcologyForaminiferaGeographical distribution.PaleoecologyForaminifera, Fossil579.4/40916364Poag C.
