A sparse, predominantly benthic foraminiferal assemblage extracted from the lower volcaniclastic interval on the Koko Seamount, Leg 197 Hole 1206A, indicates an early to middle Eocene age and, in general, a middle to upper bathyal paleobathymetry (400-1000 m). The very rare occurrence of poorly preserved planktonic foraminifers tends to support this biostratigraphic interpretation, which is based primarily on benthic foraminifers.
