In our recent paper on Palaearctic Docosia Winnertz, 1863, a new species was described under the name Docosia turkmenica Kurina & Ševčík, 2012. The material originated from the Kopet Dag Mountains (Big Bakhcha River) in southwest Turkmenistan and was named for its occurrence in the country (Kurina & Ševčík 2012). Unfortunately, the authors were not aware of a previous paper by Zaitzev (2011) de...

In this research, petrographic and geochemical (major and trace elements) characteristics of siliciclastic rocks of the Mozduran Formation in the eastern Kopet-Dagh Basin have been carried out in order to reveal their provenance such as source area paleoweathering, parent rock composition and tectonic setting. Mozduran Formation is mainly composed of limestone and dolomite, with minor amounts o...

in this study, calcareous nannofossils at the boundary between tirgan and sarcheshmeh formations at taherabad and mozduran sections have been studied. these sections are located in the eastern kopet-dagh basin. 22 nannoplankton species of 14 genera in taherabad section and 20 species of 14 genera in mozduran section were identified. according to the first occurrence of index species and fossil ...

the aitamir formation (albian- cenomanian) in the kopet- dagh basin consists of fine to medium grained sandstone, siltstone, shale and limestone. its lower contact with the sanganeh formation is gradual and its upper contact with the abderaz formation is unconformable. field and petrographic studies of the aitamir formation in artenj and ghorghoreh sections, located in bazangan area- east of ko...

calcareous nannofossils in boundary of tirgan and sarcheshmeh formations at qalezo section have been studied. this section is situated in the west of kopet-dagh basin. in this study 35 nannoplankton species of 17 genera were identified. according to the first occurrence of index species and fossil assemblages two calcareous nannofossil biozones (cc7-cc8) of sissingh (1997) have been recognized....
