Abundance, diversity and stratigraphicpersistence are outstanding features of the fossil invertebrates. Therefore, the complementarity (as the capacity of twocontrasted theories together to explain a body of phenomena, although each separately accounts for only some aspects) or theconsilience (as the fact or condition of being inferred from different phenomena) between Palaeontology and SequenceStratigraphy through the study of fossil invertebrates is specially useful for the interpretation of the geological record and thepalaeoenvironmental changes. %~
