Abstract
Fusulinid Foraminifera are widespread in the Permian of America, Europe, and Asia and are among the best indices for correlation of Permian rocks. Twenty-six species or varieties of seven genera and two subfamilies are described from the Permian of California. Although Permian fusulinids are abundant in California, only a few species have been described from that area or any part of far western United States.
