...Florian Cesbron; Emmanuelle Geslin; Charlotte Le Kieffre; Thierry Jauffrais; Maria P. Nardelli; Dewi Langlet; Guillaume Mabilleau; Frans J. Jorissen; Didier Jézéquel; Edouard Metzger Abstract Haynesina germanica is a coastal benthic foraminifer known to sequester chloroplasts from benthic pennate...

... in the bay. There are five dominant species in the bay fauna; in order of decreasing abundance, they are Ammonia tepida, Elphidium poeyanum, E. excavatum, Haynesina germanica, and Ammotium salsum . The canonical analysis shows that Elphidium excavatum and Haynesina germanica have the strongest response...

...Laurent Seuront; Vincent M. P. Bouchet Abstract The motion behaviour of three species of intertidal foraminifera, Ammonia tepida , Cribroelphidium excavatum and Haynesina germanica , was investigated continuously in the laboratory. We first infer the presence of geotactic and phototactic responses...

.... Changes in foraminiferal abundance and biovolume were compared to responses of microphytobenthos, bacteria, meiofauna and macrofauna, which have been reported in separate papers. The foraminiferal assemblage comprised three species, Haynesina germanica , Ammonia beccarii and Elphidium excavatum...

.... in the Indian River Lagoon, USA (60 monthly samples) and Haynesina germanica in Cowpen Marsh, UK (25 fortnightly samples). The most precise estimate was for H. germanica , but it was unclear if this was due to the high rate of sampling or the large number of replicates used to erect this time-series. (2...

... brackish conditions from 5.5->0.5 ka. Only the highly tolerant species Haynesina germanica is found abundantly in the few intervals containing foraminifera dated between >3.4 and <2.5 ka. Finally, Stage D, corresponding to the last >0.5 k.y., reflects human intervention on the lagoon with land...

... of Cribroelphidium poeyanum and Haynesina germanica in the northern and central portions of Chincoteague Bay, as indicated by seasonal pH data. Similarly, the sandy back-barrier lagoonal sites exhibited relatively low densities, potentially a result of dissolution or mechanical destruction. 3 Correspondence...

... is dominant in ponds, while Elphidium excavatum, Haynesina germanica , and Ammonia batava dominate tidal flats and ditches. The different marsh species occupy specific niches linked to ecosystem stability and the combined influence of submergence frequency, substrate (i.e., grain size), pH, and likely food...
