Twenty-one small Paleocene-Pliocene Rotaliid benthic foraminiferal species of the genus Angulogerina are distributed in some localities in the Northern Tethys (USA, Atlantic Ocean, England, Spain, France, Belgian, Germany, Sweden, Poland, Hungaria, Slovenia), and also Southern Tethys (Pakistan, Japan, New Zealand, Argentina and Chile). The modern taxonomic consideration of the recorded species are presented. These species are: Angulogerina abuzeidi Anan n. sp., A. angulosa, A. byramensis , A. cooperensis, A. cuneata, A. dubia, A. elongata, A. europaea, A. germanica, A. globosa, A. japonica, A. muralis, A. oligocenica, A. pulchella, A. reussi, A. rugoplicata, A. sagriniformis, A. tenuistriata, A. tortuosa, A. vicksburgensis and A. wilcoxensis. One of these illustrated species re believed to be new: Angulogerina abuzeidi Anan n. sp. The prominent environment of the genus Angulogerina and its members most probably in an open outer shelf-upper-middle slop marine environment during the Paleogene-Neogene.
