Non Spiral Hyaline Foraminifera of the Qom Formation, in Type area

Good occurrence and abundance of Miocene plankthic foraminifera in the most locality of the world led to less consideration to benthic foraminifera. The Central Iran is a region with environmental charasteristics, which benthic foraminifera have noticable occurrence and abundance. In this research, smaller non spiral hyaline benthic foraminifera of the Dobaradar stratighraphic section in Type area of the Qom Formation are studied. In this section, these group of foraminifera declare good abundance and diversity, and consist of 12 genera and 37 species from 12 families. Among these, Bolivina scalprata miocenica, Bolivina antiqua, Bolivina catanensis, Bolivina striatula,, Bulimina pyrula, Bulimina costata, Fursenkoina acuta, Lagena substriata, Lagena reticulata-striata, Latibolivina sp, Globulina sp. cf. G. spinosa, Nodosaria raphanistrum, Reussella spinulosa, Uvigerina multicostat are reported for the first time.
