The unit, characterized by volcanic sandstone, is a shallow marine succession deposited in a moderate- to high-energy environment. The thin-shelled pectinids, collected from the lower part of the unit, are preserved mostly as complete valves. Shell thickness, sculpture pattern and umbonal angle suggest a free-living, inactive swimming life habit.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={A new fossil Adamussium (Bivalvia: Pectinidae) from Antarctica}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/107648/PDF-MASTER/10183_Volume31_Issue4_01_paper.pdf}, keywords={Antarctica, Adamussium, Pectinidae, Destruction Bay Formation, Oligocene}, }
