This empty test is beginning to show signs of decay. The study of the process of decay is called taphonomy; understanding the processes that cause certain changes in foraminiferal tests after death is very important for the reconstruction of paleoenvironments.

This test, which no longer contains a living foraminiferan, is beginning to decay. The small chambers at the top of the test are gone, leaving a spiral of holes where they once were.

This small foram (about 100 microns across) is living on the surface of the test of a much larger foram, Bathysiphon filiformis. The Bathysiphon test is 600 times as long as the Tritaxis one.
