Abstract
The author, as a member of a group of paleontologists of the Uzbek Geological Department, has been studying Silurian sediments of the Southern Tien Shan for a number of years. The ostracod forms described here were collected in the areas where stratotypes of the most important Silurian horizons and formations for the Turkestan-Nurata zone were identified: in the middle reaches of the Isfara River (Turkestan Ridge) and in the area of Mount Merishkor (North Nuratau Ridge). The stratigraphic scheme of the Silurian deposits [Kim, Larin, 1968] is based on long studied groups of fossil animals - stromatopores, corals, brachiopods, graptolites...
