Abstract

As a result of studying the stratigraphic distribution of palynomorphs in the Cenozoic marine strata of the Kvachina Bay section, six different age associations of dinocysts, spores, and pollen have been identified. Their analysis made it possible to date the deposits of the Tigil Unit by the Bartonian–Pribonian, the Belesovataya Unit – by the Oligocene–Early Miocene, and the overlying lower part of the Kavranian Series – by the Early Miocene. The age of the dislocated rocks underlying the Tigil Unit is estimated as Late Ypresian–(?) Early Lutetian. On the basis of the revealed changes in the ratios of the ecological groups of palynomorphs, conclusions were made about the paleoenvironmental in which the formation of strata took place in various time intervals.
