Four Codiaceae (calcareous chlorophyte algae) are described from the Middle East. Anchicodium sindbadi sp. nov., Tauridium kurdistanensis sp. nov., and Aphroditicodium aurantium gen. et sp. nov. are from the Permian: Boueina hochstetteri Toula (Lower Cretaceous) is a first Middle East record. Aphroditicodium is compared with other segmented Codiaceae from Ordovician to Recent, and their characters are tabulated.
