This paper presents the results of a facies analysis of the Upper Cretaceous deposits in Southwestern and Central Crimea and a characterization of the Cenomanian–Coniacian sequence. This geological body, bounded by surfaces of parallel unconformities, comprises beds of six lithological types, each formed in a specific ramp setting. Their migration due to transgressive-regressive sea-level fluctuations resulted in the formation of seven parasequences. The spatio-temporal changes within these para
