Abstract

Late Devonian conodonts, recovered from the siliceous and carbonate rocks of the upper part of the Akbasay Formation on the left side of the Kule Gorge, Zeravshan-Gissar mountainous area (Uzbekistan), are studied. Seven conodont associations are defined for the Frasnian–Famennian interval.
