Eocene-Miocene Lagenid new genus Amphicorynella and its species of Romania (East Europe) and France (West Europe) are described. It is characterized by its elongate calcareous perforate uniserial test, globular proloculus with commonly apiculate base, followed by inclined globular chambers throughout, sutures distinctly depressed, surface ornamented with fine costae broken up into rows of small pustules, aperture terminal with a pronounced neck with ring like concentric ridges. These species are: Amphicorynella popescui, A. romanica, A. mazeni, A. yassini, A. franciaca, Amphicoryna sztrákosae. All the recorded benthic foraminiferal species from the Romania and France in Europe are, so far, an endemic to its original erections.
