Abstract: In this paper we introduce the notion of contact angle. We deduce formulas for Laplacian and Gaussian curvature of a minimal surface in $S^{2n+1}$ and give a characterization of the generalized Clifford Torus as the only non-legendrian minimal surface in $S^5$ with constant Contact and Kaehler angles.
