© 2017, The Author(s). Early Emsian (Zlichovian) ammonoids are recorded from a section of neritic deposits on the western and northwestern slopes of Sangibaland Mountain (right bank of the Shakhimardan River, near the village of Jiydelik, South Fergana, South Tien Shan, Kyrgyzstan) including other faunas such as conodonts, dacryoconarids, brachiopods, trilobites, and corals. The ammonoid fauna includes Erbenoceras cf. solitarium (Barrande, 1865), E. kimi Bogoslovsky, 1980 and new species of teicherticeratids. This combination of taxa allows the host beds to be correlated with the Zlichovian LDIII Zone. Ammonoids come from the Katran Formation, from beds previously recognised as the Sandal Formation, which is well–known for its neritic assemblages, interpreted as inhabitants of shallow shelf zones in the northern regions of the Paleozoic Alai–Tarim Terrane. Near the end of the Zlichovian, when the Dalejan transgression spread to the Sangibaland Region, ammonoids colonised the neritic basin near a carbonate platform, already inhabited by abundant benthic fauna. The co-occurrence of neritic and pelagic organisms is a useful feature providing a basis for the correlation between the pelagic and neritic successions of the lower Emsian (Zlichovian).
