The rocky substratum of this environment and presence of seaweeds and algae, allow a habitat for attached foraminiferal species. Typical forms can recent coasts are: Elphidium spp., Cibicides lobatulus, Planorbulina sp., Massilina sp.
However, as rocky coast is principally a non depositional environment, the tests of the foraminiferal fauna after death will be either destroyed by abrasion or be transported offshore into a region of deposition
