The foraminiferal succession of the Upper Triassic to Lower Jurassic Kapp Toscana Group in central Spitsbergen (Juvdalen section) contains 67 benthic foraminiferal species. The quantitatively highly dominant agglutinated suborder Textulariina is represented by 34 species, while the subordinate calcareous calcareous suborder Lagenina comprises 33 species. Five agglutinated taxa, which are abundant in the investigated assemblages, are described herein for the first time and named: Ammodiscus multispirus n.sp., Ammodiscus subremotus n.sp., Ammobaculites parvulus n.sp., Trochammina sublobata n.sp. and Verneuilinoides brevis n.sp. All of these species occur in sediments deposited in marginal marine (deltaic and coastal) to shallow shelf environments of restricted nature.
