Abstract

Historical development of Permian Inoceramus-like bivalves of the bipolar genus Maitaia Marwick in northeastern Asia is briefly considered. Five new species (Maitaia vedernikovi sp. nov., M. kusnezovi sp. nov., M. orulganica sp. nov., M. regularicostatum sp. nov., and M. tobonnoensis sp. nov.) from the Middle and Upper Permian of the Omolon Massif, northern, western, and southern Verkhoyansk Region are described.
