Ab stract: Upper Ju ras sic and Lower Cre ta ceous de posits of the Cri mea Pen in sula are rich in micro fossils frequently used for stratigraph ic inter pre ta tions . In case of foramini fera the research has been car ried predom i- nantly on as semblages ob tained by washing the rock sam ples. The present pa per is based on in ves ti ga tions of thin sec tions from the more in du rated sedi ments that sel dom were objects of study. Its goal was to ob tain ad di tional in for mation on age and en vi ron ment of sedi ments studied. Over 250 thin sec tions from 16 surface out crops yielded abun dant fora minifera from which over forty are de scribed herein. Many fo rami nif eral spe cies (e.g. Labiryn thina mirabilis, Pa rur gonina caelin en sis, Neok ili an ina ra honen sis, Amijella amiji, An chis pi ro cyclina lu si tanica) are stra tigraphi cally signifi cant and known from the Kim meridgian–Ti tho nian of the Medi ter ra nean Tethys. The Early Cre taceous fauna is repre sented by Pro topen eroplis ul tra granu lata, Ever ti cy clam mina kel leri, Nau ti lo cu lina bron ni manni, Mon sale via saleven sis, Mayn cina bul garica. Gen er ally, the in ves ti gated fauna is typi cal for pa leoen vi ron ment of the car bon ate plat form. Older (Kim me ridgian–Ti tho nian) as sem blages rep re sent in ner part, younger (Ber ria sian) outer part of the plat form. Paleo geo graphic dis tri bu tion of many spe cies de scribed from the stud ied area in di cates its af filia tion with cos mopoli tan bi ota known from the north Te thyan shelf. Ad di tion ally few cal care ous cysts of di no flag el lata have been iden ti fied and de scribed.

Key words: fo ra mini fers, di no flag el lata, Up per Ju ras sic, Lower Cre ta ceous, Cri mea.
