In this study, the genus Alveolina D’ Orbigny, 1826 and its Alveolina (Alveolina) D’ Orbigny, 1826 and Alveolina (Glomalveolina) Hottinger, 1960 subgenera were re-examined and identified. Systematics of the subgenera Alveolina (Alveolina)=Alv. (Alv.) and Alveolina (Glomalveolina)=Alv.(Glomalv.) have also been reviewed and revised. Alv. (Glomalv.) is considered as a subgenus, not a genus (?). Because, all the generic features of microspheric generations (fB) of these two subgenera are identical. Thus, Alveolina D’ Orbigny, 1826 and Glomalveolina Hottinger, 1960 cannot be used as if they were two different genera (?). Otherwise Glomalveolina would be the synonym of Alveolina in “Systematic Paleontology” chapter. …
