Chesapeake Bay Ostracodes

By Thomas M. Cronin and Deena Grinbaum

Ostracodes are bivalved Crustacea whose shells are often fossilized and used to

reconstruct environmental trends in lakes, estuaries and coastal bays, and in the world’s

oceans. Ostracode species live in virtually all aquatic environments, including fresh,

brackish, and marine waters. Most species have well-defined salinity and temperature

tolerances (Hazel, 1970) such that changes in the relative frequencies of species in

sedimentary sequences make them ideally suited for quantitative estimation of paleosalinity

(Cronin, 1977) and paleotemperature trends (Valentine, 1971; Cronin and Dowsett, 1990).

Modern ostracodes from coastal environments of eastern North American and the

Gulf of Mexico have been intensely studied for decades. Many species are geographically

widespread, inhabiting many bays, lagoons, sounds and estuaries in eastern North America.

The most comprehensive publications documenting and reviewing the taxonomy and

ecology of the species that inhabit Chesapeake Bay include papers by Morales (1966), King

and Kornicker (1970), Garbett and Maddocks (1979), and Cronin (1987) on faunas from

Texas and Mexican Bays, and those by Cronin (1979), Schweitzer and Lohmann (1990),

Grigg and Siddiqui (1993) on assemblages from the Atlantic coast.

The most important study of ostracodes from Chesapeake Bay itself is the classic

ecological study by Tressler and Smith (1948) who, in a 2-year sampling program lasting

from June, 1940 until June, 1942, determined the seasonal ecology of ostracode species

living off Solomons, Maryland. Tressler and Smith’s study also provided a benchmark

faunal assessment of a major benthic group prior to recent nutrient application in the

watershed against which the ostracode database presented here can be compared. Other

early studies include the paper by Sohn (1965) who reported on the genus Cyprideis from

South River, Maryland, and Elliott et al. (1966) who documented the ecology of ostracodes

living in the Rappahannock River estuary. Sandberg and Plusquellec (1974) reported

Cyprideis mexicana Sandberg 1964 from the Patuxent River area and re-classified the

Cyprideis described by Sohn (1965) from the South River as Cyprideis americana Sharpe

(1909).

There are also numerous publications describing and illustrating the fossil

ostracodes from Neogene sediments from the Chesapeake Bay area. These include Ulrich

and Bassler (1904), Malkin (1953), Forester (1980), Valentine (1971), Hazel (1971, 1985),

Cronin (1979), Cronin and Dowsett (1990). The paleontological data contained in these

papers are especially useful because they demonstrate that many ostracode species living in

Chesapeake over the past millennium have been living in the mid-Atlantic region from

hundreds of thousands to millions of years.

The present study is an effort to document both the living ostracodes of Chesapeake

Bay and the temporal trends in ostracodes that have taken place over approximately the past

millennium, by documenting fossil assemblages in sediment cores. Following the format

used for other microfossil groups, there are two sections given here. These include a section

containing six plates of scanning electron photomicrographs illustrating 26 ostracode

species found in the mesohaline parts of the bay (Table 5), and a section containing the

species census data for ostracodes obtained from the box, piston, and gravity cores

described in the introduction (Appendix 4). The species illustrated in the plates include most

ostracode species now living, or having lived in the middle regions of Chesapeake Bay over

the past millennium.
