Acetolysis on hard carbonates levels of the Tercis quarry found 22 species in addition to those of the studies published in 2001. Today, 75 species are recognized: they represent 34 known genera, and 4 currently unidentified. Small species usually rare of the genera Aversovalva, Bythoceratina and Eucytherura were collected. All of the assemblages (of both genera and species) are characteristic of a Campanian-Maastrichtian open carbonate platform environment. %K Ostracodes %K Campanian %K Maastrichtian %K stratotype %K Tercis %K Aquitaine %K France %K acetolysis %U http://paleopolis.rediris.es/cg/CG2008_A02/
