This paper investigates the relationship, if any exists, between the evolution of the planktonic foraminifera and the presence of anoxic water masses in the water column. The relationship with changes in sea-level over the expanded Cretaceous shelves is also discussed. New data from DSDP Legs 80 and 95, coupled with that from southern England, north-east England and the North Sea Basin will be used to assess the evolution of the microfauna.
