Type Locality and Naming

Includes in Shadarlan and Schugnan ranges.

Delineated by B. Ya. Khorova and K. T. Budanova (1965). Within the volumes accepted in this work, these suites were delineated in 1957-1970 by V. P. Bulin, K. T. Budanova, G. S. Volos, and A. G. Davydchenko during geological mapping. In somewhat different volumes, and sometimes under different names, these suites or those close to them were previously delineated by S. I. Klunnikov, V. A. Maslennikov, and M. I. Rabkin (Geol. USSR, vol. 24, 1959; Barhatov, 1963).
