Permian ammonoids of the southeastern Pamirs
Abstract
The schemes of subdivision of Permian sediments of southern areas based on microfauna are difficult to link with stratigraphic schemes of subdivision of Permian sediments of other areas, in particular, with the reference section of the Urals. This problem is solved only by the co-occurrence of ammonoids and microfauna. More than ten locations of ammonoids of good preservation prove the wide distribution of ammonoids in the Permian sediments of the Pamir in area and section. The main results of the processing of the collected materials on the age of individual formations and broad correlation of Permian deposits of different areas are presented above. The present work contains a description of a number of new forms of ammonoids collected mainly from a single locality – on the right bank of the Istyk River, from deposits of the Kuberganda Formation.
