Microfossils (National Museum of Natural Science)Type Collection Collection Identifier c0323 Description Nannofossils refer to small fossils that need to be observed and studied through a microscope. Due to wide distribution, large quantity and short lifespan, some nannofossils can be used as index fossils, and are very helpful for comparing geological layers. Some nannofossils can also be used as references for research in ancient ecology. In addition, nannofossils can be found in abundance, often with many fossil samples in one small piece of rock, and are therefore good materials for the research of the evolution of appearances. Common nannofossils include foraminifers, radiolarians, mussel shrimp, conodonts.
