AB A total of 45 species of benthic foraminifers and 8 of ostracods have been studied from the sandysediment of dunes from Noja (Cantabria, Spain). Dominant assemblages are formed by the speciesLobatula lobatula and Cibicides refulgens, accompanied by Quinqueloculina seminula, Rosalina globularisand Textularia sagittula (foraminifers) and by Loxoconcha elliptica and Caudites calceolatus (ostracods).Since those species are present in the Noja beaches or are occurring as thanatocoenotic specimenstransported from the marine shelf, we can propose that the sediment of the dunes is originated in thebeaches, and accumulated by dominant winds from the NW. In the dunes of the Trengandin beaches thefurther occurrence of individuals of euryhaline species, such as Ammonia tepida at the base of thedunes, suggests the existence of sources of water coming from the karstic urgonian limestones of theoutcrops in the area
