Macrofossil calcite plays a central role for palaeoenvironmental reconstructions because its preservation state and geochemical signatures can be checked using a variety of screening techniques. Reconstructions of the ecology and seawater composition from such data require knowledge about species-specific compositions of well-preserved calcitic fossils. Comprehensive datasets, recording averages, intraspecimen and intraspecific variability of geochemical proxies in fossil calcite, however, are still largely lacking.
