Six rotaliid foraminifera from Upper Cretaceous reef deposits of the Caribbean region are discussed. One species, Sulcoperculina angulata Brown and Bronnimann, is new. Siderolites vanbelleni (van den Bold) and Kathina jamaicensis (Cushman and Jarvis), originally described from strata thought to be of Eocene age, are regarded as Upper Cretaceous fossils. Siderolites skourensis (Pfender), Stomatorbina binkhorsti (Reuss), and Eponides hemisphaericus (Reuss), which are known from the type Maestrichtian in Holland, are recorded from Cuba.
