Abstract

The Ovče Pole Paleogene basin is a large Eocene – Oligocene sedimentary mass located in the eastern part of the Vardar zone in the territory of the Republic of Macedonia (Fig.1).
The presence of the fossils in the lithological environment derives many data regarding the paleoecological conditions within those areas. In that sense, the fossils represent a solid source of information regarding the reconstruction of the conditions and the lifestyle of the organisms within one particular living environment. In the recent years the foraminifers represent one of the basic groups of organism that are used for interpretation of the old time sea environments.
The subject of this paper is to present the outcomes from the taxonomical composition and structure of the foraminifer association from Ovče Pole basin that are significant for reconstruction of the living conditions during the period of the Upper Eocene in the basin.
