• The biostratigraphy of the latest Gzhelian‒Asselian fusulinoid fauna from the Banarizeh section located in the Abadeh region of the Sanandaj–Sirjan Zone is investigated. The most characteristic species among the fusulinoids are the species of Pseudoschwagerina?, Nonpseudofusulina, and Praepseudofusulina; the last one is represented by four species, namely, Praepseudofusulina kljasmica (Sjomina), P. cf. saratovensis (Chernova), P. incomperta (Scherbovich), and P. cf. impercepta (Jagofarova). A biostratigraphic correlation shows that the latest Gzhelian–Asselian fusulinoid assemblage from the Banarizeh section shares some common species with the contemporaneous assemblages of the Russian Platform and Southern Urals. It can also be compared to those of the Alborz, Tabas Block (East Iran), and Yazd Block (Central Iran).
