Abstract: During the last four decades ago, fifty-seven (54 agglutinated and 3 porcelaneous) benthic foraminiferal species and related to 23 genera have been erected by the present author, which start at 1984, which are recoded from many countries around the Arabia (Egypt, Palestine, Jordan, Iraq, UAE, Iran and Pakistan), and also Saudi Arabia, Yemen, UAE and Qatar. Some of these species were also recorded from many countries in the Northern Tethys (Atlantic Ocean, USA, Spain, France and Poland), and western Pacific Ocean. These species help, not only to define the major faunal changes throughout the Campanian-Neogene time, but also to emphasis the stratigraphic importance of them in different localities in the Tethys. Most of the identified species were erected: 12 species (from Egypt), 11 (UAE), 8 (Iraq), 4 (Iran), 3 (Pakistan and France), 2 (Palestine, Pakistan, Spain and Poland), while one species only from the other countries. The Tethys assemblage indicates an open marine environment, which represents middle-outer neritic environment and shows an affinity with Midway-Type Fauna (MTF).
