Abstract The tectonic evolution of the Eastern Black Sea Basin has previously been explained based on offshore and onshore data, some of the latter from the Crimean Mountains (CM). However, changes in the stratigraphy of the CM have recently been proposed: the Late Triassic–Early Jurassic Tauric Group was assigned as younger (Albian). To clarify the stratigraphy and the tectonic evolution of this area, we sampled the eastern CM for micropalaeontological datings (nannoplankton). The results demon
