Ten species and one variety of fusulinids which are definitely referable to the genus Staffella are known, and five other congeneric forms have been referred to these species, perhaps incorrectly. All of these come from rocks of Lower Pennsylvanian age in Europe, Asia, and North America. Five additional species that may represent this genus have been described. These range in age from Mississippian to Permian. The genus Staffella is discussed at some length in this paper. The genotype is renamed and two new species and one new variety from the Lower Pennsylvanian of Oklahoma and Colorado are described. A new generic name, Ozawainella, is proposed for a closely related form, Fusulinella angulata Colani, of the Permian(?) of French Indo-China.
