Benthic foraminiferal assemblages from the Gulf of Edremit, Lesbos Island, Alibey and
Maden islands and Dikili Bay have been investigated and various morphological
abnormalities, as well as, colored tests and large sizes have been observed. Besides,
abundance of alien species originating from tropical seas attracts attention. Interesting
togethernesses were found between different genera and species. Significant differences were
observed between the assemblages from the northwest and southeast coasts of the Gulf of
Edremit. 57 genera and 97 species were identified in the samples from the northwest coast,
where as only 32 genera and 48 species were found on the southeast …
