Abstract

Two new foraminiferal families are introduced as follows: the Anatoliellidae (type
genus Anatoliella Sirel) in the superfamily Ataxophragmiacea Schwager and the family
Bolkarinidae (type genus Bolkarina Sirel) in the superfamily Orbitoidacea Schwager. Three
new species of Paleocene are described and figured as follows: Ranikothalia polatliensis,
Nurdanella paleocenica, Periloculina yilmazi. In addition, four known Paleocene genera
such as Bolkarina Sirel, Globoflarina Rahaghi, Nurdanella Özgen and Coskinon Hottinger
and Drobne and subfamily Globoflarininae are redescribed.
