The foraminiferans are the most diverse phylum of meofauna. Foraminifera are found in all marine environments, they may be plankotic or benthic in mode of life. It has been estimated that the total number of foraminiferans species might be approximately 4000 living species of foraminifera. The present paper deals with the distribution and diversity of marine foraminiferans all over Tamilnadu Coast. Foraminiferal distribution has been reported by many workers. Foraminiferans were the most abundant group of meiofauna at all the sampling sites. The number of species per station ranged from 11 to 32.
