Eleven new species of ostracodes are named and described from the Zebbeus Formation near Le Kef, Tunisia. The samples studied were from the Danian part of the Zebbeus Formation. the Danian age being based on the foraminifers contained in the samples. The ostracode fauna appears to be more closely related to northern European late Maastrichtian faunas than to other previously described African ostracode faunas.
