The first study results on foraminifera from the PermianTriassic boundary deposits in the southern Verkhoyansk region (the lower part of the Nekuchan Formation, Suol section located in the basin of Setorym River, a tributary of the East Khandyga River) are presented. The studied foraminifera constitute a novel group for this section and have not been used in paleontological-stratigraphic studies. The foraminiferal assemblage is represented exclusively by ammodiscids (Ammodiscus, Glomospira, and Glomospirella genera), among which Ammodiscus septentrionalis Gerke dominates. The distribution of foraminifera in the Suol section is compared to the previously constructed carbon isotope curve, which reflects global environmental changes. Three intervals are identified in the stratigraphic distribution of foraminifera. In the lower interval, foraminifera are relatively numerous and diverse. In the middle interval, foraminifera are not detected; the maximum negative values of 13Corg isotope is also recorded here. This interval obviously corresponds to the main extinction episode in the Tethyan basins. In the upper interval, a gradual restoration of the abundance and structure of the foraminiferal complex occurs. A comparative analysis of the distribution and dynamics of taxonomic reorganization of the foraminiferal assemblages from the PermianTriassic deposits within the Suol section and the assemblages from the Tethyan and Boreal sections has been carried out; as a result of this analysis, the common features and regularities are established. Brief descriptions of four foraminiferal species and a plate with their images are given.
