The article analyzes the zoonymic vocabulary of the Siberian Tatars of the late 18th - early 19th centuries and its functioning in the modern Tatar literary language and Siberian dialects. The material of the research is the Russian-Tatar Dictionary, collected at the Tobolsk Main Public School by the Tatar language teacher Joseph Giganov (St. Petersburg, 1804), as well as field records made during expedition trips to settlements with a compact residence of Siberian Tatars in 2020. 9 groups of animal names have been identified, using the biological classification of the animal world. The group of names of invertebrates is supplemented by the names of worms (Vermes), crustaceans (Crustacea), arachnids (Arachnida), insects (Insecta), and vertebrates - the names of fish (Pisces), amphibians (Amphibia), reptiles (Reptilia), birds (Aves) and mammals (Mammalia). In addition, synonymy and variability within the lexical-thematic group are considered from the standpoint of the modern division into literary and dialectal units. The authors come to the conclusion that when compiling synonymous series, the main principles were usuality and bookishness.
