Abstract
    Foraminifera is an important group of organisms which is widely used as indicators of environmental change.  Not much work on foraminifera has been done on the Arabian margin running along the Pakistan coast. Information on the diversity and distribution of foraminifera is very limited and no information is available from the Balochistan coast. This study is an attempt to explore the diversity and dynamics related to foraminifera at the coast of Baluchistan. This very part of the study is designed to collect information about the zonation, vertical distribution and  abundance of  the genus Asterigerina  at the beach of Ormara, Balochistan. The fossilized form of Asterigerina was previously reported from the sediments of upper Quetta region.  This is the first report on the occurrence of alive Asterigerina in the coastal areas of Pakistan.
