The aim of this paper is to investigate n-dimensional real submanifolds of complex manifolds in the case when the maximal holomorphic tangent space is (n-1)-dimensional. In particular, we give some examples and we consider the Levi form on these submanifolds, especially when the ambient space is a complex space form. Moreover, we show that on some remarkable class of real hypersurfaces of complex space forms, the Levi form cannot vanish identically.
