Abstract
    We present the study of ostracods from the gigas Zone, which disappear during the F/F crisis, at the famous Coumiac upper quarry. We have recorded and figured forty-three species. Nine are described, five of which are new: Microcheilinella frumentaria nov. sp., M. postfecunda nov. sp., Grammia lorenzi nov. sp., Famenella declivis nov. sp. and Bairdiacypris nana nov. sp. Podocopid ostracods predominate in this association where Aparchitacea and Entomozoacea are also present unlike Metacopida. Benthic ostracod characters, especially the 10 percent of ostracods belonging to the Thuringian assemblage, show that the paleoenvironment was a well oxygenated shoal on an outer continental shelf.
