This study describes a new Paleogene Rotaliid genus Uvigerinelloides from the middle Oligocene, Septarienthon of Hermsdorf, near Berlin, Germany. It is characterized by fusiform triserial perforate calcareous test, chambers regularly triserial throughout, while the final chambers more loosely arranged, surface finely hispid to smooth, which the last-formed chambers often entirely smooth, aperture slender neck and slightly phialine lip. This genus differs from the other Uvigeriniid genera by its finely hispid to smooth surface, which the last-formed chambers often entirely smooth.
