Notes: T = top or highest occurrence, B = bottom or first occurrence. Ages are those of Berggren et al. (1995); ages in square brackets are those of Shackleton et al. (1999). The well defined, but uncalibrated, Globorotalia mayeri datum is also included. * = corrected age estimate for the "T M. acuta" event based on the DSDP Site 550 ash bed calibration of Berggren et al. (1995). They list the last occurrence of this taxon as 54.7 Ma, but the figure caption states that it is present at "the midpoint between ash beds -17 and +19, 54.0-54.5 Ma." This table is also available in ASCII. [N1]
