Stratigraphy and Geological Correlation Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Taxonomic composition of plant fossils from the Aptian-Cenomanian sediments of the Alchan, Razdol’naya, and Partizanskaya depressions of Primor’e is studied in detail. Each of the established floral assemblages characterizes a particular stage of flora stabilization. Correlation of the assemblages is performed. Floral assemblages of the Alchan depression, which occur in association with macrofauna, are suggested to be the standard ones for the southern Far East. New species are described.
