Abstract: Two hundreds calcareous benthic foraminiferal species of the Suborder Rotaliina belong to sixty genera from twenty countries in the Southern Tethys (Chile, Argentina, Angola, Nigeria, Tanzania, Mali, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Saudi Arabia (SA), Yemen, Qatar, United Arab Emirates (UAE), Iraq, Iran and Pakistan) have been studied. The modern taxonomical consideration of the species is used. The recorded species were previously noted in the literatures, while two of them are believed here as new: Stainforthia abdelkarimi and Siphonodosaria misrensis. Forty species of them are recorded from Egypt (about 41%), twenty seven from Pakistan (~ 28%), ten from UAE (~ 10.5%), six from Qatar (~ 6%), four from each of Algeria and Iran (~ 4%), three from three from Jordan (~ 3%), two from each of Palestine and Iran (~ 2%), and only one from each of Iraq and India (~ 1%). Most of the Southern Tethyan recorded species are endemic to their original description, while five of them are also recorded in some other Southern Tethys, and also Northern Tethyan countries (Atlantic Ocean, France, Spain, Slovenia, Austria, Turkey, Turkmenia and Kazakhstan).
