The main problematic issues of the Konkian stratigraphy were considered. Lithological features of the Konkian deposits from different areas of the Eastern Paratethys and species diversity of molluscs and foraminifers were analyzed. Criteria for detection of the initial (early) and final (late) stages of development the Konkian basin have been proposed. They are based on the features of the species diversity of molluscs and foraminifera. The Pholas interbed at the bottom of the Konkian sediment w
