Summary:	Twenty-two species of planktonic Foraminifera and 89 species of benthonic Foraminifera are recognized in the Aquia Formation. The following 10 species are new: Lagenammina pseudodifflugiformis, Haplophragmoides aquiensis, Rectoglandulina aquiensis, Oolina virginiana, Nonionella aquiensis, Aeolostreptis marylandica, Buliminella marylandica, Fissurina aquiensis, Fissurina marylandica, and Fursenkoina aquiensis. The Aquia Formation contains three planktonic foraminiferal assemblage zones that are useful in correlating outcrop sections within the Aquia and in correlating the Aquia with equivalent units in the Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plains.
Target Audience:	Specialized.
