This study includes the reinvestigation, modern taxonomical consideration, description and illustration for ten Holocene littoral benthic foraminiferal species belonging to ten genera of Suborders Textulariina (agglutinated form, includes 1 species), and three suborders constituting the calcareous forms: Miliolina (1 species), Lagenina (1 species) and Rotaliina (8 species). These ten taxa are recorded from the Iranian Coast of Eastern Arabian Gulf, which were previously noted in the literature, and believed here as new: Spirotextularia kaminskii, Spiroloculina amaoi, Reussoolina iranica, Bolivinoidesella younesi, Cancris abdrabboi, Cibicides helmyi, Nonion maheri, Hanzawaia abbasi, Asterorotalia maheri, Challengerella solimani.
