Abstract
    Growth periodicity (cyclomorphic variation) in corals is expressed by various features, among them changes in the distribution of tabulae. A method potentially useful in analysis of periodical environmental changes is proposed herein. Measurement of spaces between tabulae in tabulate corals and preparation of a histogram converted into a trend curve may show relative periodical fluctuations of the environment. Such an analysis, exemplified here on Givetian Pachyfavosites sp. from the Avesnois (northern France), shows that this method may be used as a tool for estimation of environmental changes.
