This book offers many examples of calcareous microfossils and describes a new microfaunistic record in Argentina. These selected papers of the 11th Argentine Paleontological Congress include micropaleontological studies on material of different geological ages from several sites in Argentina and Colombia. The authors highlight several geological findings and explain the paleoenvironmental changes in Argentina and Colombia.

Dr. Gabriela Cusminsky is known as a brilliant geologist and paleontologist. She is a regional and world authority in both marine and terrestrial forams and ostracods. Cusminsky finished her postdoc studies at the University of Wales at Aberysthwyth.
