A detailed investigation of the protoglobigerinids from the Kimmeridgian section of the Montagne de Crussol, SE France is presented.

Three species were determined in thin sections and in isolated forms after extraction by acetolysis. Favusella? parva (KUZNETSOVA) is the most common species occurring in almost the entire succession from the Orthosphinctes to the Becker
