Abstract

Carboniferous ammonoids from the Taimyr Peninsula (Russian Arctic) are described for the first time. Despite its rare occurrence, the ammonoid fauna is of great importance for the regional stratigraphy. Scientific names of ammonoids are given according to the modern systematic scheme, three biostratigraphic assemblages that specify the age of cephalopod-bearing strata are established. New species such as Glaphyrites taimyricus Konovalova et Borissenkov, sp. nov. from the upper part of the Makarovskaya Formation of the Western Taimyr and Kayutoceras pogrebitskyi Borissenkov et Kutygin, sp. nov. from the Olen’ynskaya Formation of the Central Taimyr are described.
