The quantitative analysis of foraminiferal fauna enabled&amp;nbsp;separation into two different groups that are supported by the analysis of modern benthic foraminiferal&amp;nbsp;communities in the studied sites. Group A consists of &lt;em&gt;Ammonia tepida&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Haynesina germanica&lt;/em&gt; (closed&amp;nbsp;lagoon assemblage), whereas the most common species of Group B (open lagoon assemblage) are&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Aubignyna perlucida&lt;/em&gt;, miliolids, &lt;em&gt;Elphidium&lt;/em&gt; spp. and &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;Ammonia&lt;/span&gt; spp. The foraminiferal composition integrated&amp;nbsp;with radiometric dating provides information on Holocene paleoenvironmental changes in the&amp;nbsp;studied coastal plains, related to seaeland interaction. Alykes Kitros and Lafrouda Thrace boreholes show&amp;nbsp;a similar trend, with an open lagoonal fauna in the lower part, transitional upwards to closed lagoonal&amp;nbsp;conditions. This environmental change has taken place after 6500 cal BP in Alykes Kitros and around&amp;nbsp;3000 cal BP at Lafrouda Thrace. The benthic communities of Vravron Attica borehole sediments seem to&amp;nbsp;represent continuously an open lagoon/shallow marine environment from 4700 to 400 cal BP.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
