Abstract
Previous records of Cycloloculina miocenica Cushman and Ponton from the Miocene of Cyprus are shown to be based on misidentifications of Discospirina italica (Costa). Examination of existing records of the latter genus indicates that its geological range may now be assumed to be Middle Miocene to Recent.
