Septloculina, a new genus of the Hauerininae differs from other milioline genera by the arrangement of its chambers in seven planes of coiling so that seven chambers are visible externally. The following three new species are assigned to the new genus: Septloculina angulata, S. rotunda and S. tortuosa. These species have been recorded from the modern deposits of the littoral zone of the Mediterranean Sea, Red Sea and Gulf of Aden. Quinqueloculina (Pseudoschlumbergerina) Cherif, which is a partial synonym of Septloculina, is considered as a junior synonym of Quinqueloculina d'Orbigny, and a lectotype of its type species (Sigmoilina ovata Sidebottom) is designated.
