The modern taxonomical consideration is used for seven coarse-grained agglutinated benthic foraminiferal species which are belonging to six genera from four countries in the Tethys around the Atlantic Ocean USA and Europe (Spain, France and Poland). These species are believed here to be new: Bathysiphon alegretae, Gaudryina pozaryskai, G. stasseni, Dorothia sztrákosae, Siphogaudryina ortizae, Pseudoclavulina thomasae and Clavulina sztrákosae. Tubular taxa (e.g. Bathysiphon) are rare in neritic settings but common in bathyal facies, while elongated serial taxa (e.g. Gaudryina, Siphogaudryina, Dorothia, Pseudoclavulina, Clavulina) are most common in the upper to middle bathyal assemblages.
