Abstract
The Ovce Pole and Tikves paleogene basins are big sedimentary complexes, which belong to the eastern and central part of the Vardar zone within the territory the territory of the Republic of Macedonia. In accordance to previos studies, the age of the Paleogene sediments (based on numerous fossilis from the microfossil groups) in the Ovcepole and Tikves basins has been determined as Upper Eocene. The paper the results of the micropaleontological investigations on the plankton foraminiferal fauna, found in the upper flish lithozones of the OP-1 (Ovce Pole basin) and KR-1 (Tikves basin) drill holes. The biostratigraphical value of the plankton foraminifer fauna in drillings OP-1 and KR-1 gave us the cahce to divide one local biostratigraphical zone in the Ovce Pole and Tikves basin. In relation to this, correlation of the biostratigraphical zones was made between the Ovce Pole and Tikves paleogene basen.
