| Abstract | The chronostratigraphy of Guandao section has served as the foundation for numerous studies of the end-Permian extinction and biotic recovery in south China. Guandao section is continuous from the
Permian-Triassic boundary to the Upper Triassic. Conodonts enable broad delineation of stage and substage boundaries and calibration of foraminifer biostratigraphy as follows. Changhsingian-Griesbachian: first Hindeodus parvus, and first appearance
of foraminifers Postcladella kalhori and Earlandia sp. Griesbachian-Dienerian: first Neospathodus dieneri, and last appearance of foraminifer P. grandis. Dienerian-Smithian: first Novispathodus waageni and late Dienerian first appearance of
foraminifer Hoyenella ex gr. sinensis. Smithian-Spathian: first Nv? crassatus and last appearance of foraminifers Arenovidalina n. sp. and Glomospirella cf. vulgaris. Spathian-Aegean: first Chiosella timorensis and first appearance of foraminifer
Meandrospira dinarica. Aegean-Bithynian: first Nicoraella germanica and first appearance of foraminifer Pilammina densa. Bithynian-Pelsonian: after last Neogondolella regalis, prior to first Paragondolella bulgarica and first appearance of
foraminifer Aulotortus eotriasicus. Pelsonian-Illyrian: first Pg. excelsa and last appearance of foraminifers Meandrospira? deformata and Pilamminella grandis. Illyrian-Fassanian: first Budurovignathus truempyi, and first appearance of foraminifers
Abriolina mediterranea and Paleolituonella meridionalis. Fassanian- Longobardian: first Bv. mungoensis and last appearance of foraminifer A. mediterranea. Longobardian-C ordevolian: first Quadralella polygnathiformis and last appearance of
foraminifers Turriglomina mesotriasica and Endotriadella wirzi. |
| Summary | (Plain Language Summary, not published)
The Guandao section in south China displays a continuous rock-record for much of Triassic time and contains abundant conodont and foraminifer fossils, a
primary rock-magnetic signature, globally recognized carbon-isotope excursions, and several radiometrically dated volcanic ash horizons. Conodont analysis enables broad delineation of stages, substages, and numerous biozones from the Late Permian
through the Late Triassic. Integration of paleontological, physical, and chemical data sets provide a global standard for time scale studies. |
