Samples are taken from young sediments at 10.00 and 20.00 mdepths, and collected by scuba-diving method. The aim of the study is toinvestigate the living benthic foraminifera assemblages in the Atlantic Ocean,and to compare these assemblages with the southeastern part of the AtlanticOcean, the Arabian Sea, Indian Ocean and Western Pacific assemblages. Moreover,the aim of the study is to determine whether there are any benthic foraminiferaforms reaching to the Mediterranean from Pacific Ocean, Indian Ocean or Red Seavia Suez Channel.
