Journal: Moscow University Geology Bulletin
Year: 2020

This work presents the results of determination of foraminifers and nannoplankton from the Upper Cretaceous deposits of the Alan-Kyr section (the central part of the Crimean Mountains). The interpretation of these data, together with previously obtained palynological and paleomagnetic data, allow us to justify the age of country deposits. In the lower part of the section, beds with planktonic foraminifera are correlated with the Santonian part of the Dicarinella asymetrica Zone. The benthic fora
