Abstract. New data on paleontological finds obtained as a result of field research in 2012-2023 are presented in the areas of the northern part of the Anadyr Estuary, Onemen Bay and Dionisia Cape. In addition to the paleontological sites previously discovered by geologists in the 20th century, new, unexplored paleontological rarities have recently been discovered. These are fossil plant remains from the Upper Pleistocene of the Anadyr Estuary, as well as a rich complex of fossil mollusks.

Keywords: Chukotka, Anadyr Estuary, plant remains, fossil mollusks
