Abstract
The article reviewes the current state of knowledge of fossil resin finds in Alaska (USA). On the basis of little-known and fragmentary documents found in both Russian and foreign scientific literature, their main locations are briefly described. The primacy of Russian researchers mentioning fossil resins of coastal regions of Alaska is noted. Their level of study is evaluated. Information on fossil resin finds from Alaska can expand the existing resin database, and an advanced study of their physical and chemical characteristics and formation conditions will help to refine the classification attributes of fossil resins, and may also provide additional opportunities for solving palaeobotanical and paleogeographic problems when comparing northeastern Russia and Alaska.
