Abstract

The results of a paleontological and stratigraphic study of an assemblage of Paleozoic primitive calcareous foraminifers from the central part of the Mendeleev Rise (Eastern Arctic) are presented. The obtained data allow us to refine and correct the age of strata containing these fossils. It is shown that the Parathurammina (s.l.) foraminifera are the most stratigraphically informative in this assemblage. The primitive foraminifers recorded in Sample 1601/8c from carbonate deposits of the central part of the Mendeleev Rise indicate the early Famennian time of formation of these deposits.
