Figure 9. Relative abundances for selected benthic foraminiferal species. Absolute abundance (per ~20 cm3 of sediment) of benthic foraminifers is given as A = abundant (>500 specimens); C = common (250-500 specimens); F = few (100-249 specimens); R = rare (50-99 specimens); T = trace (1-49 specimens); and B = barren (no specimens). Note that very few specimens were found in Samples 1076A-15H-CC, 16H-CC, and 20H-CC and that no reliable percentage estimates could be obtained.
