Description

IV International Rhodolith Workshop, Granada, Espanha, 17 a 21 de Setembro. “[…]. The project aims to produce the first taxonomical study of the Late-Miocene-Early Pliocene rhodolith coralline algae for the Azores and to produce check-lists of the rhodolith coralline algae species by Island collected from selected outcrops. The outcrops will be studied geologically, chronostratigraphically and geochronologically in the frame of the project "The Route of the Fossils". Data sets will be used to establish the (palaeo)-biogeographical relationships between the Atlantic archipelagos (Azores, Madeira, Canaries and Cape Verde). The results will be compared with those of other marine organisms (mollusks, echinoderms, littoral fishes, bryozoans, ostracods). […]”
