Scientific paper

A series of even carbon numbered , -dicarboxylic acids ranging from C 16 to C 24 has been identified in recent sediments from various environments and sampling localities. A lacustrine sediment did not show detectable quantities of diacids. Consideration of quantitative relationships involving the diacids leads us to propose a dual origin for these diacids: deposition by mangroves is their main source in mangal areas while in situ production by sedimentary organisms is the only important source of diacids in a non-mangal marine environment. A fresh water lagoon shows an intermediate situation between these extremes.
