Migration of foraminifera in Territory times in Australia

The distribution of marine Tertiary rocks in Australia is restricted to the western and southern coastal areas of the continent. The rocks represented are of Paleocene, Eocene, Miocene and Pliocene ages. Considerable material has been collected in stratigraphic sequence from many Tertiary localities in recent years and the detailed examination of the foraminiferal content of the rocks has yielded many startling discoveries.
