Late Cretaceous foraminifera from the Kurdistan region NE Iraq

Jaff interests in using foraminifera in the Tethys Ocean mainly for biostratigraphy palaeoceanography palaeobathymetry and palaeoenvironmental analysis. He is also very keen to use cosmopolitan benthonic foraminifera as a worldwide biostratigraphy such as those of the genus (Bolivinoides) in Late Cretaceous strata. Jaff also interests in using Late Cretaceous heterohelicids for biostratigraphy in case when other planktonic foraminifera such as (dicarinellids marginotruncanids and globotruncanids) were absent.
