SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION

Emphasis upon publication as a means of “diffusing knowledge” was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: “It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge.” This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series:

Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology
Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics
Smithsonian Contributions to Botany
Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences
Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences
Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology
Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology
Smithsonian Folklife Studies
Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space
Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology

In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world.

Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review. Press requirements for manuscript and art preparation are outlined on the inside back cover.

ABSTRACT

Culver, Stephen J., and Martin A. Buzas. Distribution of Recent Benthic Foraminifera off the North American Pacific Coast from Oregon to Alaska. Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences, number 26, pages 234, 139 figures, 2 tables, 1985.—A computer file of all published distributional data (presence or absence) on the living and dead recent benthic foraminifera off the North American Pacific Coast (Oregon to Alaska) was constructed from 31 papers published since 1886. Manipulation of this file produced 5 catalogs and 139 maps.

Catalog 1 lists alphabetically species names with publication and locality information as recorded in the literature (i.e., unsynonymized). Catalog 2 lists synonymized species names with publication and locality information. Catalogs 3 and 4 list alphabetically all unsynonymized and synonymized species names, respectively. Catalog 5 lists synonymized names by increasing latitude and longitude.

During the past 100 years, 523 names have been used to record benthic foraminifera in the study area. Through synonymization, this number was reduced to 404, of which 138 occur at 6 or more of the 157 sample localities. Computer-generated maps were drawn for the 138 most commonly recorded species.

Species were grouped by depth and geographic (latitudinal) distribution through visual examination of the maps. Eight species are coastal in their distribution, 63 occur mainly at depths of less than 200 m, 27 at depths greater than 200 m, and 40 are ubiquitous with depth. Many species appear to alter their depth distribution with latitude, but this may be due to a poor sampling framework.

Latitudinally, the species are grouped into three categories. Forty-two species occur mainly to the north of 52°–55°N, 22 species occur mainly to the south of 52°–55°N, and 74 species are latitudinally ubiquitous within the area of study. This preliminary analysis indicates a possible faunal break in the region of Queen Charlotte Island.

OFFICIAL PUBLICATION DATE is handstamped in a limited number of initial copies and is recorded in the Institution’s annual report, Smithsonian Year. SERIES COVER DESIGN: Seascape along the Atlantic coast of eastern North America.

Introduction

Study of the recent benthic foraminifera off the North American Pacific Coast began in 1886 when Whiteaves published his work on the faunas off British Columbia. Since then, many other workers have contributed papers on the taxonomy, distribution, and ecology of northwestern Pacific foraminifera. One hundred and fifty-nine papers concerning recent benthic foraminifera of this region were published between 1886 and 1980. This paper represents the first attempt to synthesize these data and is the fourth of a series including and summarizing all published data on the distribution of recent benthic foraminifera around North America. All published distributional data for the east coast is presented in Culver and Buzas (1980) and the results of subsequent analysis are given in Buzas and Culver (1980), Culver and Buzas (1981a,b, 1982a). Gulf of Mexico data are given in Culver and Buzas (1981c,d, 1982a, 1983). Distribution data for the Caribbean region are presented in Culver and Buzas (1982b).

The work presented here can be divided into three main parts. First, there is a reference section consisting of (1) the papers used in compiling the presence-absence data utilized by this study and (2) additional references that are cited in this paper. Second, there are five computer-generated catalogs listing every species ever recorded in publications on the North American Pacific coast, north of California. Third, there are computer-generated maps of the 138 most commonly recorded species together with a map showing all sample localities in the study area. Explanatory notes for the catalogs and maps can be found later in this introduction.

Following the format of our studies of the benthic foraminifera off the east coast of North America, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Caribbean, we have included a key to our concept of each of the 138 most commonly recorded species.

METHODS.—The computerization methods utilized in this work were the same as those described in detail in Culver and Buzas (1980). Of the 159 papers published on the benthic foraminifera of the North American Pacific continental margin, 31 contained data in a form enabling its incorporation in this study. The name of one or more species (living or dead) and the locality where they were found was all that was required. The information typed into the basic compilation file consisted of (1) author of publication, (2) date of publication, (3) generic name used in publication, (4) specific name used in publication, (5) locality, and (6) latitude and longitude (see Catalog 1).

When numerous sample sites of a particular study were in very close proximity they were summarized by a single or several representative localities. Thus, all species recorded in the sampled area were considered to have been found at the representative points. In a very few cases, where no detailed locality information was given, a point was arbitrarily chosen to be representative of the records in question. Modification and sorting of this basic file resulted in the production of 5 catalogs, which are described below. The 139 maps in this publication are also computer-generated and were drawn on a Calcomp Plotter.

THE CATALOGS.—Five catalogs are included in this section and are designed to enable the reader to have rapid access to all published distributional data on recent benthic foraminifera off the North American Pacific coast north of California. Catalog 1 lists (alphabetically by binomen) all the records of every species ever recorded in the study area and also includes publication and locality information. This catalog contains almost 2,500 entries and around 12,500 pieces of information. Catalog 2 is the synonymized version of number 1. This list is identical to Catalog 1 except that generic and specific names have been changed where necessary. To aid referral between Catalogs 1 and 2, line numbers starting at 10001 are included at the left-hand margin of the files. Thus, for example, it can be seen that Trifarina angulosa from Ketchikan, Alaska (Catalog 2, line 10121) was originally recorded (Cushman and McCulloch, 1948) as Angulogerina angulosa (Catalog 1, line 10121). Due to an error, line 12047 in Catalogs 1 and 2 is blank.

Catalogs 3 and 4 aid rapid use of the first two catalogs. Catalog 3 is an alphabetized list of the 523 taxa that have been recorded on the North American Pacific continental margin north of California. Catalog 4 lists alphabetically the 404 species recorded in this area after synonymization achieved by reference to published illustrations and specimens lodged in the USNM collections (National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution) and the British Museum (Natural History) collections. Catalogs 3 and 4, therefore, are derived directly from Catalogs 1 and 2, respectively.

Catalog 5 is intended for the researcher interested in specific areas. This catalog contains alphabetized lists of synonymized species for each locality (localities are listed by increasing latitude and longitude). If, in the case of synonymized species, the investigator questions the generic or specific name used, he can refer to Catalogs 1 and 2 to find the original name used by the author of the publication in which that species was recorded.

THE MAPS.—The 139 computer-generated maps included in this section are, like the catalogs, provided as a reference tool for use in distributional studies of recent benthic foraminifera. Figure 1 illustrates the distribution of all the 157 sample localities included in this study. The 183 m and 1830 m submarine contours roughly approximate to the edge of the continental shelf and the bottom of the continental slope, respectively. The distribution of the sample localities must be taken into account when examining the maps illustrating the distributions of species.

Figures 2 to 139 are computer-generated maps of the 138 most commonly recorded species. These are species that have been recorded 6 times or more, or at approximately 4% or more of the 157 localities; the figure of 4% was chosen arbitrarily to conform with the studies of the Atlantic continental margin of North America, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Caribbean (Culver and Buzas, 1980, 1981c, 1982b). The maps are arranged alphabetically by genera and by species within each genus.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS.—We thank Dante Piacesi and Ken McCormick for their considerable efforts in the computer production of this work. D.A. Diddi, L. Collins, S. Richardson, and A. Lanham contributed invaluable library research and secretarial services. Dr. C.G. Adams kindly allowed access to British Museum (Natural History) collections.

Discussion

The main purpose of this publication is to present all the published distributional data of recent benthic foraminifera from the North American Pacific continental margin north of California. A total of 523 names have been recorded in this region from 157 localities. Synonymization reduced this number to 404. Of these 404 species, 138 occurred at 6 or more of the 157 localities; that is, 29% of the species occur at 4% or more of the sample localities.

Distributional data have been summarized by tabulation. Table 1 is a synopsis of depth distribution and Table 2 summarizes latitudinal distribution. Depth distribution of the 138 most commonly recorded species was determined through visual inspection of the maps. Forty species are ubiquitous, 8 are coastal, 63 occur at depths of less than 200 m and 27 species at depths of greater than 200 m.

The sampling framework must be taken into account when considering these depth distributions. In this study, “ubiquitous” means that a species occurs both on the continental shelf and slope. As there are few abyssal samples, “>200 m” indicates that a species is found mainly on the slope. Similarly, “<200 m” indicates that a species occurs mainly on the shelf. The category “coastal” includes lagoons, marshes, bays, and beaches.

Many of the species listed under “ubiquitous” occur on the shelf in the south of the study area, but with increasing latitude they extend their bathymetric ranges down onto the slope. This could be interpreted as species changing their habitats with latitude as indicated by depth distributions (e.g., Hazel, 1970). However, there are so few bathyal samples in the south of the study area that this interpretation cannot be accepted without further study.

The poor sampling framework, together with taxonomic inconsistencies, can also be suggested as the reason for some unexpected distributions. For example, Trochammina inflata, a well-known littoral marsh form, is listed in Table 1 as having a ubiquitous distribution. Examination of Figure 128 shows 12 records, of which 7 are coastal, 4 are bathyal and 1 is abyssal. Given these wide habitat differences it is reasonable to suggest that even with synonymization, two or more species are represented by these data.

One species, Cribrostomoides nitidum (Figure 29), is distinguishable from all others in the “>200 m” category. The six records are all from abyssal depths and so this species may be a useful deep water indicator in the study area. In comparison, in the Gulf of Mexico (Culver and Buzas, 1981c) C. nitidum occurs at bathyal and abyssal depths. This illustrates the danger of utilizing the isobathyal species concept (Bandy and Chierici, 1966) as a tool for bathymetric interpretations.

Latitudinal distribution of recent benthic foraminifera is the subject of Table 2. Visual examination of Figures 2–139 resulted in three categories of distribution with a possible faunal boundary in the vicinity of Queen Charlotte Island (52°–55°N). Forty-two species occur mainly to the north of this region, 22 occur mainly to the south, whilst 74 species occur throughout most of the latitudinal spread of the study area from around 41°N to 61°N.

Although a possible faunal break is noted above, we will reserve comment on foraminiferal provinces along the Pacific coast of North America until the final two volumes in this series covering California to Baja, California, and Baja to Panama (Culver and Buzas, in preparation) are published.

The summary distributions described above are based solely on the data presented in this study and do not take into account distributional data to the north or south of the area covered by this publication.

7. Commonly recorded genera and species vary in their usefulness for delimiting depth zones.

8. The depth distribution of many “ubiquitous” species increases towards the north. It may indicate habitat changes with increasing latitude, but it can just as easily be explained as an artifact of a poor sampling framework.

9. Three groups of commonly recorded species characterize biogeographic faunal categories. Forty-two species occur mainly to north of 52°–55°N, 22 occur mainly to the south of this region, and 74 species are latitudinally ubiquitous in the study area extending from around 41°N toward 61°N.

Key to the Species on the Maps

Following Culver and Buzas (1980, 1981c, 1982b) we list below a key to our concept of the 138 most commonly recorded species on the North American Pacific continental margin north of California. Genera are listed alphabetically as are the species within each genus. Under each species, the reference or references are given where the reader can find published illustrations that adequately convey our concept of each of the commonly recorded species in this study. Many of the 138 species were also included in the keys to commonly recorded species for the east coast of North America, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Caribbean (Culver and Buzas, 1980, 1981c, 1982b); the references given here for these species are generally the same.
