Appendix Systematic paleontology of selected taxa PDF file			Previous \| Next doi:10.2204/iodp.proc.342.206.2018 Results Preservation of the specimens is good overall. The specimens are translucent to white in color; some have secondary calcite. External structures, such as carinae, spines, and reticulation, are well preserved. Calcareous ooze and nannofossils are attached to the surface of the specimens and often cover muscle scars and pores. We identify 23 taxa that belong to 2 suborders (Platycopida and Podocopida) and 12 families (Bairdiidae, Bythocyprididae, Bythocytheridae, Cytherellidae, Cytheruridae, Eucytheridae, Krithidae, Loxoconchidae, Paracytherideidae, Pontocyprididae, Trachyleberididae, and Xestoleberididae) (Table T3). The Krithidae and Trachyleberididae taxa are diversified, with six species each. See the Appendix for taxonomic notes. Top of page \| Previous \| Next
