This study deals with new information on paleontology and lineages of fourteen Argentinian Ypresian benthic foraminiferal species from the Punta Torcida Formation, lower-middle Eocene (Ypresian-lower Lutetian), Tierra del Fuego Island and Fuegian continental shelf, which belongs to twelve genera: <em>Laevidentalina</em>, <em>Lagenoglandulina</em>, <em>Tollmannia</em>, <em>Tristix</em>, <em>Leticuzonaria</em>, <em>Palmula</em>, <em>Leroyia</em>, <em>Marginulina</em>, <em>Ramulina</em>, <em>Orthokarstenia</em>, <em>Rectuvigerina </em>and <em>Pleurostomella</em>. Ten of the illustrated species are believed to be new: <em>Laevidentalina jannoui</em>, <em>Lagenoglandulina argentinica</em>, <em>Tollmannia </em><em>argentinica</em>, <em>Leticuzonaria argentinica</em>, <em>Palmula americana</em>, <em>Leroyia </em><em>argentinica</em>, <em>Marginulina argentinica</em>, <em>Ramulina subornata</em>, <em>Ramulina </em><em>morsii</em> and <em>Rectuvigerina argentinica</em> sp. nov. The paleoenvironment of the Argentinian taxa would have been a shelf sea of normal salinity, where muds were deposited under low energy and low oxygen conditions, as is suggested by the dominance of infaunal morphotypes and excellent preservation of the tests, whereas intercalated sandstones reflect moderate energy and oxic conditions, bearing microfossil assemblages displaced from shallower settings.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Earth and Planetary Science}, author={Anan, Haidar Salim}, year={2023}, month={Apr.}, pages={33–43} }
