In the present paper we document and describe&amp;nbsp;morphological abnormalities of &lt;em&gt;Ammonia tepida&lt;/em&gt; and some additional foraminiferal species from Holocene sedimentary&amp;nbsp;successions of the Aegean Sea (Alykes Kitros and Vravron Attica). The abnormality types are manifested largely by&amp;nbsp;siamese twins, whereas distorted chamber arrangement, overdeveloped or protruding chambers and the presence of&amp;nbsp;multiple apertures have also been observed. Our observations on the distribution of abnormal tests in comparison to the&amp;nbsp;characters of the accompanying fauna suggest that malformation was caused mainly by rapid and intense salinity&amp;nbsp;fluctuations.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
