珠江口盆地揭阳凹陷早渐新世-中新世古生物地层及沉积环境

位于珠江口盆地揭阳凹陷的S1井是盆地东南部唯一钻井,其地层和沉积环境分析意义重大。本研究通过对S1井孢粉、有孔虫和钙质超微化石地层对比分析,确定了所钻地层时代。井段(3 326.5～2 950 m)共鉴定孢粉40属62种,孢粉组合无明显变化,以桤木粉-双束松粉为主,组合与盆地内渐新统珠海组相同。整个分析段3 326.5～2 059.5 m共鉴定浮游有孔虫11属41种,依据标准种首末现事件共划分出P19-N6 5个带或联合化石带。钙质超微化石共鉴定8属24种,划分NP23-NN4共5个钙质超微化石带。综合判定:地层时代为早渐新世-早中新世(～31-18 Ma),渐新统与中新统的界限在2 876.5 m附近。利用浮游有孔虫的丰度和底栖有孔虫的组合来判别该地层的沉积环境,认为揭阳凹陷S1井在早渐新世-早中新世均为陆坡深水环境,水深1 000 m。     

渤海湾盆地南堡凹陷始新世—渐新世孢粉、藻类与地层对比

南堡凹陷是位于渤海湾盆地黄骅坳陷北部的小型构造单元。为深入研究南堡凹陷古近纪孢粉组合,采集了Gp1和Np288等七口钻井样品。经传统酸、碱处理法获得孢粉化石,并在研究区古近系地层中划分出六个孢粉亚组合:沙三段4亚段的Ephedripites-Taxodiaceaepollenites-Ulmoideipites tricostatus-Pterisisporites属于始新世鲁特期、沙三段1—3亚段的Quercoidites microhenrici-Ulmipollenites minor属于始新世中晚期、沙二段的Ephedripites-Rutaceoipollis-Meliaceoidites与沙一段的Quercoidites-Meliaceoidites属于渐新世早期、东二段与东三段的Ulmipollenites undulosus-Piceaepollenites-Tsugaepollenites与东一段的Juglandaceae-Celtispollenites属于渐新世中晚期。研究区古近纪孢粉组合与黄骅坳陷中北区及滩海地区的孢粉组合可以形成良好对比,并且研究区局部出现的沙三段4、5亚段与渤海湾盆地普遍出现的沙河街组四段上部为同一时期的产物。     

宁夏六盘山盆地晚三叠世孢粉组合及其地层意义

对宁夏六盘山盆地炭山、窑山及上流水等３条剖面中原划为中侏罗统延安组下部含煤地层的２１块岩样进行了孢粉分析,获得丰富的孢粉化石,鉴定出７６属１４４种,建立了Ｄｉｃｔｙｏｐｈｙｌｌｉｄｉｔｅｓ－Ａｒａｔｒｉｓｐｏｒｉｔｅｓ－Ｃｙｃａｄｏｐｉｔｅｓ组合。通过与国内外相关孢粉组合对比,认为该组合地质时代应属晚三叠世。首次以孢粉化石为依据,确认了六盘山盆地上三叠统延长组的存在。     

塔里木盆地棋盘-杜瓦地区早二叠世孢粉植物群及生态环境

新疆塔里木盆地是我国含油气远景极好的内陆盆地。因本区油气资源勘探工作的需要,笔者对盆地西南缘二叠系化石孢粉组合进行了研究。本文根据孢粉组合特征,将原划为晚石炭世塔哈奇组上部的一段地层划入二叠系,并讨论了早二叠世植物群面貌、生态环境特征和孢粉组合中的混生现象。     

塔里木盆地棋盘—杜瓦地区早二叠世孢粉植物群及生态环境

新疆塔里木盆地是我国含油气远景极好的内陆盆地。因本区油气资源勘探工作的需要,笔者对盆地西南缘二叠系化石孢粉组合进行了研究。本文根据孢粉组合特征,将原划为晚石炭世塔哈奇组上部的一段地层划入二叠系,并讨论了早二叠世植物群面貌、生态环境特征和孢粉组合中的混生现象。     

珠江口盆地荔湾凹陷W22井渐新世生物地层研究

通过对珠江口盆地荔湾凹陷超深水井W22井3 266～3 991 m井段72个样品开展有孔虫和钙质超微化石分析,讨论了该层段的地层划分并确定了其年代。研究层位含有丰富的有孔虫和钙质超微化石,详细的生物地层学分析显示其属于渐新世。其中,有孔虫分析发现3 390 m以下为早渐新世P18-P21a带沉积、3 380 m以上为晚渐新世P21b-P22带至N4带下部沉积,显示其地层年代为33-23 Ma;而钙质超微化石分析则揭示出该层位包含了自NP25带底部到NP21带的地层,下渐新统/上渐新统的沉积界限在3 390 m左右, Coccolithus formosus的末现面出现在3 841 m表明钻井3 841 m以深地层年代大于32.92 Ma,但更深地层未发现始新世钙质超微化石,表明底部年龄仍为早渐新世,但推测已经接近渐新世/始新世界限(33.89 Ma)。荔湾凹陷渐新世经历了从陆架浅海到上陆坡半深海环境的演变。     

内蒙千里山地区中、上渐新统的发现及其意义

在这篇文章中,根据所发现的脊椎动物化石和岩性,将内蒙伊克昭盟千里山地区陆相第三纪地层分为四部分。并建立了两个组:上部上渐新统伊克布拉格组和中部中渐新统乌兰布拉格组。后者被分为上、下两段。在亚洲,一直未能发现完整的,具有丰富脊椎动物化石的中、晚渐新世地层的剖面。千里山地区渐新统连续剖面的发现,对亚洲中、晚渐新世地层的层序的建立和对比提供了可靠的依据。     

从孢粉学论证东海盆地下第三系的存在

传统的地质学观点,将东海盆地与台湾海相地层相提并论,以至误解东海盆地只有上第三系沉积。而在东海海域龙井构造中首钻的龙井一井和次钻的东海一井下部地层中所获得的孢粉组合证明,东海盆地龙井构造史前的早第三纪时曾与苏北相连成陆,只是在晚渐新世一早中新世时才全面解体接受海侵,这一事实表明,其成盆历史大体与南海相仿。     

新疆布尔津盆地晚始新世一早渐新世岩石及生物地层

布尔津盆地中的第三纪地层过去被称为“乌伦古河组”。该套地层的岩性组合独特 ,不同于乌伦古河流域该组命名剖面的乌伦古河组。依据布尔津县城西北 2 0km处的额尔齐斯河北岸出露的地层剖面 ,建立两个岩石地层单位 :下部额尔齐斯河组和上部克孜勒托尕依组。额尔齐斯河组为一套富含铁质的色彩鲜艳的碎屑堆积 ,克孜勒托尕依组是一套浅黄绿色砂岩夹杂色泥岩地层。克孜勒托尕依村附近的建组剖面为一连续沉积剖面 ,含有 3个确切的哺乳动物化石层位、5个化石地点。最下部化石层含有典型的始新世Ergilian期哺乳动物 ,其余两个层位的化石均属早渐新世Shandgolian期哺乳动物。因此 ,该剖面为一Ergilian Shandgolian(晚始新世—早渐新世 )过渡时期的地层剖面 ,是进一步研究该过渡期哺乳动物群替代及Ergilian/Shandgolian地层界线的理想剖面。     

藏南江孜地区古近纪甲查拉组孢粉组合及古环境分析

甲查拉组位于藏南特提斯喜马拉雅北带的江孜盆地,是江孜地区的最高海相地层,被视为新特提斯洋关闭时代的主要证据。通过对甲查拉组剖面的孢粉分析,自下而上划分为3个孢粉组合带:1 Ulmipollenites minor+Ulmoideipites-Myricipites组合带;2 Quercoidites-Caryapollenites组合带;3 Abiespollenites-Betulaceoipollenites+Betulaepollenites组合带。甲查拉组孢粉植物群揭示出其沉积自晚古新世开始,其沉积结束可能延续到早渐新世。推测晚古新世—早始新世为温暖湿润的暖温带或亚热带气候,始新世中晚期为温暖、潮湿的亚热带气候,早渐新世为温和湿润的暖温带气候。     

河南潭头、卢氏和灵宝盆地上白垩统一下第三系的划分

在这篇短文中,根据脊椎动物化石的发现,进一步叙述和讨论了豫西潭头、灵宝和卢氏三个盆地的中、新生代地层的划分问题。在这三个盆地的中、新生代堆积物中,属于晚白垩世的有潭头盆地秋扒组和灵宝盆地的南朝组,后一个盆地还可能存在着时代更早的白垩纪地层。在潭头盆地的高峪沟组和大章组中分别找到中古新世的阶齿兽、中兽科和晚古新世的牧兽科、假古猬科化石;在潭头组中发现原恐角兽类和古脊齿兽类化石,时代为早始新世。在灵宝盆地的项城群中尚未找到哺乳类化石,可能包括古新世和始新世早中期的堆积。卢氏盆地的卢氏组和锄钩峪组以及灵宝盆地的川口组和浑水河组的时代为晚始新世。卢氏组下部和川口组或许可延至中始新世。     

广西百色第三纪哺乳动物群与气候变迁

在广西百色共发现了三个层位:晚始新世早期的洞均组,晚始新世晚期的那读组和早渐新世的公康组。它们的哺乳动物的种类数目分别为14,27和ll,而其南方类型的百分含量则分别为50,77.8和54.5。故在晚始新世早期或早渐新世,气候较凉;而在晚始新世晚期,气候较暖。这是与北美的情况相类似的。     

Foraminiferal turnover across the Eocene–Oligocene transition at Fuente Caldera, southern Spain: No cause–effect relationship between meteorite impacts and extinctions

We studied planktic and small benthic foraminifera from the Fuente Caldera section, southern Spain, across the Eocene–Oligocene transition. Benthic foraminifera indicate lower bathyal depths for the late Eocene and earliest Oligocene. Detailed high-resolution sampling and biostratigraphical data allowed us to date precisely layers with evidence for meteorite impact (Ni-rich spinel), which occur in the lower part of the planktic foraminiferal Globigerapsis index Biozone and in the middle part of the small benthic foraminiferal Cibicidoides truncanus (BB4) Biozone (middle Priabonian, late Eocene). Major turnovers of foraminifera occur at the Eocene/Oligocene boundary, only. The impact did not occur at a time of planktic or benthic foraminiferal extinction events, and the late Eocene meteorite impacts did thus not cause extinction of foraminifera. The most plausible cause of the Eocene/Oligocene boundary extinctions is the significant cooling, which generated glaciation in Antarctica and eliminated most of the warm and surface-dwelling foraminifera.     

Early Tertiary fossil plants and paleoclimate of Lanzhou Basin

Fossil plants from the lower part of Xianshuihe Formation in the Lanzhou Basin, Gansu Province were studied. The flora contains 29 species, representing 20 genera and 12 families, which include Lauraceae ( Daphnogene ), Lardizabalaceae ( Akebia ), Berberidaceae ( Berberis ), Ulmaceae ( Planera, Ulmus, Zelkova ), Betulaceae ( Alnus, Carpinus ), Myricaceae( Myrica ), Salicaceae ( Populus, Salix), Myrsinaceae(Ardisia), Rosaceae ( Prunus, Sorbus, Sorbaria, Spiraea ), Leguminosae ( Gleditsia, Sophora), Anacardiaceae (Rhus), Caprifoliaceae(Viburnum). An analysis of the floristic elements and their foliar physiognomy shows that most members of the flora are deciduous broad-leaved trees or shrubs with a few evergreen shrubs. The most noteworthy species is Rhus turcomanica which was present in the Middle Eocene to Late Eocene of Central Asia (Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan). Generally, Rhus turcomanica occurred at the same beds as Palibinia, an extinct fossil plant whose presence indicates a subtropical dry climate. Another species, Sorbaria callicomifolia Kornilova was present from the Early Oligocene to Early Miocene of Central Asia (Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan). According to an analysis of spores and pollen, this flora contains over 20 species. It is predominated by the angiosperm pollen. There appeared Ephedripites and Nitrariadites which were important elements in the dry area. Ephedripites was found from the Upper Cretaceous to Early Tertiary. Nitrariadites occurred in the Late Miocene, whereas Rhus turcomanica and Sorbaria callicomifolia were both reported in the subtropical dry area from the Middle Eocene to Early Oligocene. The latest record of Rhus turcomanica is from the Middle Eocene to Early Oligocene of Central Asia. The presence of this element in the lower part of Xianshuihe Formation may indicate that itsage is the latest stage of the Early Oligocene.     

兰州盆地早第三纪植物及古气候意义

化石采自甘肃省兰州盆地咸水河组底部,经研究认为有29种,归属20属12科。它们是：樟科 Lauraceae (Daphnogene),木通科Lardizabalaceae(Akebia),小檗科Berberidaceae(Berberis),榆科Ulmaceae (Planera,Ulmus,Zelkova),桦木科Betulaceae(Alnus,Carpinus),杨梅科Myricaceae(Myrica),杨柳科Sali- caceae(Populus,Salix),紫金牛科Myrsinacese(Ardisia),蔷薇科Rosaceae (Prunus,Sorbus,Sorbaria,Spir- aea),豆科Leguminosae(Gleditsia,Sophora),漆树科 Anacardiaceae(Rhus),忍冬科Caprifoliaceae(Viburnum) 等。经植物区系组成与叶相分析显示,该植物区系的大多数成员是落叶阔叶乔、灌木,少数为常绿灌木。其中特殊的分子是 Rhus turcomanica Korov．ex Vassilvesk,该成分是早第三纪中、晚期的标志化石植物。另一化石植物 Sorbaria callicomifolia Kornilova曾出现在中亚的早渐新世,最晚至早中新世。同一层位采集的孢粉样分析结果显示：该组合仅约20种,种类相对贫乏,并以被子植物的花粉占优势。其中出现裸子植物的麻黄粉,被子植物的白刺粉及蒿粉等,这几个类型均指示沉积时期经历干旱气候。综合植物大化石及孢粉分析研究,均出现一些指示气候为亚热带干旱或周期性干旱气候的特点,并据Rhus turcomanica出现的最晚记录,推测咸水河组底部的地质时代大约是早渐新世晚期。     

EPHIPPIA OF CLADOCERA FROM THE TERTIARY OF CHINA

The present paper deals with the fossil ephip-pia of Cladocera obtained separately from theShahejie(Late Eocene to Oligocene)and Dongying(Oligocene)Formations in the coastal region ofthe Bohai Sea,the 2nd and 3rd members of theHetaoyuan Formation(Late Eocene to Oligocene)in Southwest and Central Henan,the Shangzashaimember of the Anjihaihe Formation(Eocene toOligocene)in the Junggar Basin in Xinjiang andthe Linxia Formation(Pliocene)in the Jingyuanarea in Gansu.They contain 8 new species and 2indeterminable species assigned to 3 genera(Daph-nia,ceriodaphnia and Simocephalus)of the fami-ly Daphnidae.     

A NEW SPECIES OF SINOLAGOMYS(LAGOMORPHA,OCHOTONIDAE)FROM XINJIANG

<正> More than 200 upper and lower jaws of ochotonid were found in the Late Oligocene of thenorthern part of the Junggar Basin,Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region,in the summer of1982.Sinolagomys.a unique Paleogene lagomorph with rootless(?) cheek teeth,was erected byBohlin(1937)based on the collections from Shargaltien and Taben-buluk,Gansu province.Upto now,it has been recorded from Middle Oligocene to the Lower Miocene of Gansu,Ninxia,Nei Mongol,and Xinjiang of China,and the Mongolian People's Republic.     

The late Eocene hyracodontid perissodactyl Ardynia from Saint Jacques,Inner Mongolia,China and its implications for the potential Eocene–Oligocene boundary

Saint Jacques is a classic Oligocene fossil locality in China, which was first investigated by P. Teilhard de Chardin and E. Licent in 1923. All the fossil mammals previously reported from the area are Oligocene in age. Here we report some new material of the hyracodontid Ardynia from two lower horizons in the Saint Jacques area. These new specimens represent two species: Ardynia praecoxMatthew and Granger, 1923 and A. ordosensis n. sp. A right lower jaw of Ardynia praecox with complete i1-c shows that i2 is the largest. The new species, Ardynia ordosensis, is characterized by a moderately hypsodont M1 with a pillar-like “crista” and the metaloph connecting the ectoloph distal to the metacone, characters that are more similar to those of A. altidentata than to any other species in Ardynia. The stratum bearing Ergilian Ardynia extends the deposits at Saint Jacques down to the upper Eocene. In combination with early Oligocene microfossils from the strata overlying the upper Eocene Ardynia-bearing layers, it is reasonable to conclude that the Saint Jacques section may bracket, or likely document, the Eocene–Oligocene transition.     

广西石炭兽科新材料

本文记述了产自广西南宁盆地中部长岭坡(村)竹排冲岸边的石炭兽一新种:长岭石炭兽(Anthracotherium changlingensis sp. nov.)这是我国目前发现的体型最大的石炭兽。通过对化石的记述和对比,证明我国有Anthracotherium这一属的存在,并确定了南宁盆地邕宁组上段(即上含煤段)的地质时代为晚渐新世。文中还记述了百色盆地发现的两件石炭兽牙齿化石。
