During the recent field research on the Tirgan Formation in the west of Kopet-Dagh sedimentary basin, ammonite assemblages were obtained from the carbonate strata of this formation. This new finding is important for stratigraphical purpose. In this research, 3 genera belong to Heteroceras , Deshayesites and Cheloniceras ? as well as one uncertain genus belongs to Turkmeniceras are determined. The ammonite fauna dates the Tirgan Formation from the late Barremian to early Aptian in the studied stratigraphic section.
