SOKOLOV, BORIS SERGEEVICH (Geologist and Paleontologist) 

 B. S. Sokolov was born April 9, 1914. After graduating from 

 Leningrad University in 1937, he worked at the University. In 

 1943 he began working at the AU-Union Scientific Research Oil 

 Institute. Since 1958 he has been a Corresponding Member of 

 the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences. 



Geological investigations were conducted by Sokolov in the 

 pre-Moscow basin and Tien Shan (until 1940), in middle and 

 central Asia (1941-45), in various regions of the European 

 section of the U.S.S.R. and on the Urals (1946-53), and in Si- 

 beria (from 1956). He has studied the stratigraphy of Paleo- 

 zoic and late pre-Cambrian regional and oil geology. In the 

 area of paleontology he investigated Paleozoic corals, es- 

 tablished the separation of tabulate corals as a particular sub- 

 class of higher polyps, formulated their new phylogenetic sys- 

 tem, and established their stratigraphic significance.
