Vladimir Prokhorovich Amalitsky (June 1, 1860 - December 15, 1917) was a Russian paleontologist and a professor at Warsaw University in Poland. Together with his wife Anna, Amalitsky undertook excavations at Kotlas on the Northern Dvina River. Between 1899 and 1914 they discovered a wealth of Late Permian vertebrate and plant fossils, defining the Solkolki Assemblage as one of the major locales for Late Permian finds.
