The Neogene Ostracod Genus Advenocypris from the Intermontane Depressions of the Southeastern Altai

Аннотация

This paper presents new data on ostracods of the genus Advenocypris. The distribution of these ostracods in the Neogene deposits of the intermontane depressions of Central Asia is analyzed. Species of this genus were selective regarding their habitats. This habitat specificity can be used to reconstruct the paleogeography of the depositional environments, origin and connections of water bodies in Central Asia. A new species of the genus Advenocypris is described. The previously known species of this genus are illustrated.
