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. -

Gonchar Str. 55-b, 01601 Kiev, Ukraine ___________________________________________________________________________ A major criterion for selecting a Global Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) is to demonstrate depositional continuity. Depositional continuity is most often accepted where there is a transitional morphocline from an ancestral species to its descendent. The GSSP is then selected to correspond with the phylogenetic first occurrence of the descendent species. Ideally, strata elsewhere are subsequently correlated with the GSSP using the local first appearance of the descendent species, or by other taxa associated with the GSSP providing supplementary biostratigraphic data. Any other stratigraphic methods can be used for correlation once the GSSP has been ratified by the International Union of Geological Sciences Commission on Stratigraphy. Multiple conodont lineages with complete transitional morphologies characterize the Bashkirian- Moscovian boundary interval in the Naqing section. The presence of all these chronoclines through the section demonstrates depositional continuity at Naqing, and provides numerous possible conodont- based levels available for selecting a basal Moscovian GSSP. -

We propose new regional correlations of the Mersin mélanges with other mélange-like units or similar series, located both in southern Turkey and adjacent regions. The palaeotectonic implications of the correlations are also discussed. The main results may be summarized as follows: the infra-ophiolitic mélange is subdivided into two units, the Upper Cretaceous Sorgun ophiolitic mélange and the Ladinian−Carnian Hacialanı mélange. The Mersin mélanges, together with the Antalya and Mamonia domains, are represented by a series of exotic units now found south of the main Taurus range, and are characteristic of the South-Taurides Exotic Units. -
The First Discovery of Permian Conodont Fauna from Peri-Gondwana Cool Water Facies in Tibet, China
中国科技论文在线 http://www.paper.edu.cn Chinese Science Bulletin © 2007 Science in China Press ARTICLES Springer-Verlag The first discovery of Permian conodont fauna from peri-Gondwana cool water facies in Tibet, China ZHENG YouYe1,2, XU RongKe1,3, WANG ChengYuan4† & MA GuoTao1 1 Faculty of Earth Resources, China University of Geosciences, Wuhan 430074, China; 2 Research Institute of Geological Survey of Tibet Autonomous Region, Lhasa 850000, China ; 3 Research Institute of Geological Survey of Gansu Province, Lanzhou 730050, China; 4 Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Nanjing 210008, China The Angjie Formation and Xiala Formation, present in the Shiquanhe area of Gar County in the western part of Gangdise, Tibet, belong to the Gangdise stratigraphic subregion. Conodonts have been found in the Angjie Formation, and they permit an age determination of Early to Middle Permian for that formation. The age of the Xiala Formation could be late Middle Permian. Whether the Late Permian marine deposits are present in this area still needs to be determined, but it is possible that the lower part of the Xiala Formation overlaps partly the upper part of the Angjie Formation. More importantly, the study has brought about a finding of typical peri-Gondwana cool water facies conodonts, namely, Vjalovognathus sp. nov. x. This is the first report and brief description of a conodont fauna from peri-Gondowana cool water facies in China. It indicates that the Gangdise stratigraphic subregion can be subdivided; the western part belongs to peri-Gondwana cool water facies, and the eastern part belongs to Tethys. -

Totally 28 conodont zones have been established, covering the Upper Visean through the Gzhelian strata. Most zones are defined by the first occurrence of index species, with a few by assemblage zones. These conodonts are, more or less, comparable with those from other areas in Eurasia. Species of Gnathodus and Lochriea dominate the Middle and Late Mississippian strata. The upper Visean consists of the Gnathodus bilineatus zone in the lower part and the Lochriea nodosa zone in the upper, whereas the Serpukhovian consists of the Lochriea ziegleri zone in the lower part and the Gnathodus bilineatus bollandensis zone in the upper. Three genera, Declinognathodus, Idiognathoides and Neognathodus dominate the early Pennsylvanian strata. The Bashkirian consists of 7 conodont zones, including the Declinoganthodus noduliferus, Idiognathoides sinuatus-Id. Corrugatus, Neognathodus symmetricus, Idiognathodus primulus, and Neognathodus bassleri, “Streptognathodus” preexpansus n. sp., “Streptognathodus” expansus zones in ascending order. The genus Idiognathodus occurs earlier in South China than in other areas. -

(b) Compilation and maintenance of a stratigraphic database centre for the global earth sciences. (c) Unification of regional chronostratigraphic nomenclature by organizing and documenting stratigraphic units on a global database. (d) Promotion of education in stratigraphic methods, and the dissemination of stratigraphic knowledge. (e) Evaluation of new stratigraphic methods and their integration into a multidisciplinary stratigraphy. (f) Definition of principles of stratigraphic classification, terminology and procedure and their publication in guides and glossaries. Fit within IUGS Science Policy The objectives satisfy the IUGS mandates of: • Fostering international agreement on nomenclature and classification in stratigraphy. • Facilitating international co-operation in geological research. 1 • Improving publication, dissemination, and use of geological information internationally. • Encouraging new relationships between and among disciplines of science that relate to geology worldwide. • Attracting competent students and research workers to the discipline. -
Sedimentology, Biostratigraphy and Mineralogy of the Lercara Formation (Triassic, Sicily) and Its Palaeogeographic Implications
UNIVERSITE DE GENEVE FACULTE DES SCIENCES Département de Géologie et Paléontologie Docteur R. Martini Sedimentology, Biostratigraphy and Mineralogy of the Lercara Formation (Triassic, Sicily) and its palaeogeographic implications THESE présentée à la Faculté des sciences de l’Université de Genève pour obtenir le grade de Docteur ès sciences, mention Sciences de la Terre par Lucia CAR C IONE de Longi (Italie) Thèse N° 3841 GENEVE Atelier de reproduction de la Section de Physique 2007 ai miei genitori, Lina e Pippo, con affetto. iii ABSTR A CT This thesis contributes to the resolution of one of the most controversial open questions about Sicilian geology: the age of the Lercara Formation. During the last century, it was variously attributed to the Permian, the Triassic, the Paleogene or the Miocene. A part from the question of the age, this work analyses the palaeoenvironmental context associated to the Lercara Formation deposition and the palaeogeographical evolution of the occidental part of the Tethys during the Permian and the Triassic. The study integrates sedimentological, biostratigraphic and mineralogical analyses, and proposes the reconstitution of the Sicanian basin subsidence history. The Lercara Formation deposited at the bottom of the Sicanian basin and constitutes the oldest formation cropping out in the Siculo-Maghrebian belts chain. It outcrops in western Sicily in the Roccapalumba- Lercara and Margana-Valle Riena areas, near Palazzo Adriano where it is better known as “Fiume Sosio deposits”, and in Portella Rossa near the village of Burgio. For this study, every known outcrop has been sampled, along with a new outcrop located in Portella Rossa. This field did not permit the recognition of any stratigraphic contact with the underlying formation or the basement, nor with the overlying Mufara Formation.
