INTRODUCTION: During the years 1953 to 1958 a team of the Paleontological Department of the Geological ln tilule of the "-tale University of Utrecht studied the Ostracoda and foraminifera of the Eocene and Oligocene of Belgium. The first paper by Dr. A. J. KEIJ, dealing 'Vith the Ostracoda, was published in 1957. The second, by Dr. D. A.T. BATrns, on the results of his studies of the Oligocc11c foramina era, followed in 1958. The present paper is the last of this series. These sludic were started because of the special importance of the Belgian Eocene Oligocene for the general stratigraphic column. The type deposits of some, more or less commony acccplccl, radiographic units of the Eocene are to be found in Belgium: Ypresian, Ledian and \Vc n1111cli a 11. Furthermore, there arc the types of the Paniselian, Bruxellian, Laekenian and Assian of l11c Belgian geologists. During four months, in 1953 and 1954, over four hundred and fifty samples were collected from a great number of pits and smaller outcrops. In addition, about one hundred and seven Ly samples from borings could be studied by the courtesy of the Directorate of the Geological Survey of Belgium. Furthermore, samples were available from classical localities of the Lower and Iidclc Eocene of the Paris basin, such as Cuise, Grignon and Damery, and from some localities of the Hampshire basfo, such as Barton Cliff, Alum Bay and Whitecliff Bay. Through the kindness of the Directorate of the Geological Survey of the Netherlands an important series of samples from the boring Voensdrecht, covering nearly the whole Eocene interval, could be investigated. They facilitated the detailed study of many of the lithologic units in the Belgian equence . While studying the foraminifera, it appeared desirable to enter into further detail on the stratigraphy of the Belgian Eocene. For this purpose, several weeks were spent in Brussels studying the Archives of the Geological Survey of Belgium. The collected data enabled us Lo prepare a number of stratigraphic maps. For definite conclusions the number of reliable data appeared insufficient; only a number of suggestions can be given. reply | flagI am retiring from my costume/wedding/clothing tailor business, and because of this I will be selling my thousands and thousands of patterns, sewing/Costume books, equipment, supplies, pamphlets etc. Please visit my other listings, follow me as more to come.
