Paleozoic fossil plants of the north-east of the European part of Russia in the collections of the A. A. Chernov Geological museum

The article is devoted to the history of the study of fossil algae and plants in the Paleozoic sedimentary deposits developed in the north-east of the European part of Russia. The main locations of the fossilized flora in this area are indicated. The history of the study shows that the remains of ancient plants and algae have been studied unevenly, which is due to the nature of the distribution of the remains and their preservation, as well as the lack of specialists. The generalization of the available information made it possible to present a collection of fossil algae and plant remains of the Paleozoic in the A. A. Chernov Geological Museum, which are of scientific and educational interest.
