Abstract
Variation in size of fossil euryhaline ostracods is discussed and compared to size variation in recent forms. The most likely cause of variation in size of euryhaline ostracods is variation in salinity. Similarities are indicated between Fabanella and Cyprideis species.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
