Seventeen Anomalinoides Rotaliid benthic foraminiferal species were erected from five localities in the Southern Tethys Chile, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt and Pakistan. Thirteen of the identified species were erected from Egypt, and four of the them were erected from Tunisia, while only one species of the assemblage was recorded from the other countries: Chile, Argentina, Algeria, Jordan, UAE, Iran and Pakistan. Three out of the identified species is believed here to be new: A. dababiyaensis, A. masrensis and A. tunisica. Environmental conditions of the identified species of the genus Anomalinoides most probably represent outer neritic-upper bathyal environment.
