The purpose of this paper is to study the canonical foliations of an almost cosymplectic or almost Kenmotsu manifoldMin a unified way. We prove that the canonical foliation ℱ defined by the contact distribution is Riemannian and tangentially almost Kähler of codimension 1 and that ℱ is tangentially Kähler if the manifoldMis normal. Furthermore, we show that a semi–invariant submanifoldNof such a manifoldMadmits a canonical foliation ℱNwhich is defined by the antiinvariant distribution and a canonical cohomology classc(N)generated by a transversal volume form for ℱN. In addition, we investigate the conditions when the even–dimensional cohomology classes ofNare non–trivial. Finally, we compute the Godbillon–Vey class for ℱN.
