Abstract

All available data on the history of study and morphology of the exotic subfamily Atsabitinae Furnish, 1966, which includes only two genera of very rare paragastrioceratids from the Kungurian of the Tethyan Realm (Timor Island and South-eastern Pamirs) and the Wordian of Texas, are summarized and reviewed. The first find of a representative of the Kungurian genus Atsabites Haniel in the South-eastern Pamirs (Bolorian Stage, Kochusu Formation, Lower Subformation) is described. Previously, this genus was known only from the Bitauni Beds of Timor Island. The finding of representatives of the endemic Timorese genus Atsabites in the Boztere assemblage of the South-eastern Pamirs confirms the very close links that existed between these basins in the Early Permian.
