Description
Summary:ABSTRACT: This publication begins series of papers on taxonomy of juvenile and little known Mesozoic gastropods from Siberia and Timan region ( = Pechora Basin). First part contains general part with geological framework followed by the paleontological part on taxonomy of Vetigastropoda and Caenogastropoda (exclusive of Neogastropoda). De− scribed are 15 species of gastropods. Three of them are new. They are Chuelskia siberica (Trochidae), Ageria gankinensis (Epitoniidae), and Dzikella chuzikovensis (superfamily and family uncertain). Moreover, described is a new genus Chuelskia (Trochidae). Eight species are left in the open nomenclature. The Siberian gastropods belong mostly to the cos− mopolitan fauna while the gastropods of Timan region are the same as those already described from Novaja Zemlja Islands.
