Abstract

The paper provides information on Palaeozoic findings of skeletal elements of different groups of agnathans and
fishes, namely in Silurian, Devonian and Carboniferous deposits of Belarus. It informs about their diversity and
distribution in these deposits as well as their characteristics. The data significantly complement the previously known
information on the ichthyofauna of the considered time interval and can be used in regional palaeontological and
stratigraphic studies of Palaeozoic deposits as well as for palaeoecological and palaeogeographic reconstructions.
