Abstract

The Upper Devonian vertebrate and miospore assemblages from the Volonga River section of the upper part of the Pokayama Formation from North Timan are described for the first time. The middle Famennian age of the unit is confirmed by miospore data. The correlation of some East European sections is discussed.
