A dataset of calcareous nannoplankton and smaller benthic foraminifera from a middle Eocene nummulitic accumulation (Transylvanian Basin, Romania).

ABSTRACT: The dataset presents quantitative information on the taxa distribution of calcareous nannoplankton and smaller benthic foraminifera retrieved from the nummulitic accumulation in the Transylvanian Basin (Romania). Until now, only the larger benthic foraminifera and bryozoans were systematically studied, data on calcareous nannoplankton and smaller benthic foraminifera are scares. Our data comprise of quantitative information on the calcareous nannoplankton and smaller benthic foraminifera (raw individuals counts, relative abundance), diversity indices, benthic foraminifera dissolved oxygen index - BFOI and normalised data (ARCSIN values) used for clustering and principal component analysis. These data provide information on paleoenvironmental changes in the north-western part of the Transyl
