Keywords: Systematics; New taxon; Small foraminifera; Globivalvulinidae; Biseriamminoids; Palaeozoic. Abstract. A new small biseriamminoid foraminifer, Globigaetania angulata gen. n. sp. n., is here described from the Wordian of a Permian–Triassic sedimentary succession of NW Iran (Zal and Poldasht stratigraphic sections). The new taxon, dedicated to Prof. Maurizio Gaetani, is characterised by peculiar morphology, coiling, and structures that are characteristic of the subfamily Globivalvulininae Reitlinger, 1950, family Globivalvulinidae Reitlinger, 1950, superfamily Biseriamminoidea Chernysheva, 1941. The introduction of the new taxon contributes to the knowledge of the systematics and evolution of the Palaeozoic biserial microgranular foraminifera.

Licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution- NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International http://creativecommons.org/ licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ 1 Abstract Permian strata from the Tieqiao section (Jiangnan Basin, South China) contain several distinctive conodont assemblages. Early Permian (Cisuralian) assemblages are dominated by the genera Sweetognathus, Pseudosweetognathus and Hindeodus with rare Neostreptognathodus and Gullodus. Gondolellids are absent until the end of the Kungurian stage—in contrast to many parts of the world where gondolellids and Neostreptognathodus are the dominant Kungurian conodonts. A conodont changeover is seen at Tieqiao and coincided with a rise of sea level in the late Kungurian to the early Roadian: the previously dominant sweetognathids were replaced by mesogondolellids.

  • Middle Permian (Wordian) Foraminifers of the Furen Limestone, Oita Prefecture, Japan
    人と自然 Humans and Nature 22: 21−25 (2011) Report Middle Permian (Wordian) foraminifers of the Furen Limestone, Oita Prefecture, Japan Fumio KOBAYASHI Division of Earth Sciences, Institute of Natural and Environmental Sciences, University of Hyogo / Division of Natural History, Museum of Nature and Human Activities, Hyogo, Yayoigaoka 6, Sanda, Hyogo, 669-1546 Japan Abstract The Furen Limestone exposed in Yatsu-cho, Usuki City, Oita Prefecture is contained as an exotic block in the Jurassic siliciclastic rocks of the Okugawachi Formation in the Southern Chichibu Belt. In addition to the known Early Permian (Asselian) fusulines, Middle Permian (Wordian) foraminifers of eight species of fusulines and seven species of non-fusuline foraminifers were newly found from the limestone. Among them, Neoschwagerina craticulifera, Verbeekina verbeeki, Chusenella cf. conicocylindrica, and Pseudodoliolina sp. are systematically described. Key words: Middle Permian foraminifers, Furen Limestone, Chichibu Belt Introduction (Kambe and Teraoka, 1968). However, paleontologic description of Paleozoic foraminifers is very few in The Furen Limestone exposed at north of Tomari, this area and almost confined to that of Huzimoto Yatsu-cho, Usuki City, Oita Prefecture is famous (1937). of the germination of an imposing limestone cave locally called as “Furendo” or “Furendokutsu” (Figure 1). The limestone corresponds to the western extension of the Permian Tsukumi Limestone (Kambe and Teraoka, 1968) and is contained as an exotic limestone block in the Jurassic siliciclastic rocks of the Okugawachi Formation (Teraoka et al., 1992; Sakai et al., 1993) in the Southern Chichibu Belt in Kyushu. Huzimoto (1937) described seven species of Early Permian fusulines from the Furen Limestone. The most important species among them is Pseudoschwagerina orientale described as a new species.
