The present paper deals with the study of the Ostracode species of subfamily Candoninae Kaufmann, 1900 from the Quaternary deposits of Western Siberia. The main goal is to reassess their generic affiliation based on their morphological features. The Siberian forms mentioned by Kazmina (1968, 1975, 1989) as Candona caudata and C. fabaeformis should be assigned to the genus Fabaeformiscandona. Shells classified by Kazmina as Candona rectangulata Alm are referred to Fabaeformiscandona balatonica Daday (Konovalova, 2012b). For the first time in the Pleistocene deposits of Western Siberia, species Fabaeformiscandona aff. hyalina (Brady et Robertson) and Fabaeformiscandona holzkampfi Hartwig were encountered, along with Fabaeformiscandona harmsworthi (Scott).
