Occurrence : G. triloculinoides PLUMMER floods the whole Paleo­cene section in Taramsa. It is considered to be one of the ex­cellent Paleocene index fossils all over the world. Stratigraphie range: G. triloculinoides has a wide occurrence. It was first described by PLUMMER (1926) from the basal part of the upper Midway group of Texas. SUBBOTINA (1953) recorded this species from the lower Tertiary in Russia. In Trinidad, BOLLI (1957) recorded G. triloculinoides from the lower Lizard Springs formation, HAYNES (1955, 1956) recorded this species from the type Thane­tian in England, LOEBLICH & TAPPAN(1957) found this species throughout the whole Paleocene in their studied sections. TROELSEN (1957) described this species from the type Danian in Denmark and Sweden. BOLLI & CITA (i960) mentioned this species from the Paleocene of the Paderno d'Adda section in northern Italy. HILLEBRANDT (1962) recorded G. triloculinoides from the lower Paleocene (zone "A & B") of the basin of Reichenhall and Salz­burg Austria. In Egypt G. triloculinoides was recorded from the different lo­calities. In Sinai,SAID & KENAWY (1956) identified this species as G. pseudotriloba from the Paleocene of Nekhl and Giddi sec­tions. In Kharga Oasis, Western Desert, NAKKADY (1959) recorded this species from" the upper Maestrichtian and Paleocene of Urn Elghanayem section. In Parafra Oasis,Western Desert, SAID &KER­DANY (I96I) found this species through out the Esna Shale, Pa­leocene age,
