The calcareous nannoplankton of the Upper Paleocene and Eocene deposits from Bakhchisaray region of the South-Western Crimea was studied, it comparison with the coeval complexes studied earlier was made and zones were identified. Kacha Formation corresponds to zones NP6–NP8 (?), Bakhchsarai Formation — to NP12 zone, Simferopol Formation — to zones NP13–NP14. According to the species composition, it was found that the calcareous nannoplankton lived in the normal-salt shelf sea, in the tropical be
