Foraminifera and coralline red algae in rock thin sections. A Fine grained Amphistegina terrigenous facies with tests of Amphistegina and Planostegina (center) (HA 66/20). B Bioclastic packstone with the larger foraminifer Borelis melo (HA 540/13). C Biserial agglutinated and planktonic foraminifera (HA 511/3). D Sesssile agglutinated foraminifer Haddonia (HA 540/). E Elphidiid foraminifer in subaxial section (HA 518/16). F Miliolid foraminifer (HA 540/13). G Cibicidid foraminifer in axial section (HA 511/6). H Multispecies rhodolite with a Triassic dolomite clast as nucleus (HA 518/2). I Multispecific boxwork rhodolite of warty/branched and crustose algal thalli with typical sediment-filled voids and borings (Gastrochaenolites igen.); intergrown are also bryozoan colonies (HA 540/7). J Branched corallinacean thalli representing maërl facies with agglutinated foraminifera, serpulids and scaphopods (511/1) K Bryozoan colonies encrusted by coralline algae with Amphistegina, molluscs and serpulids (HA 511/3)
