湖南衡阳盆地岭茶地区古近纪介形类动物群北大核心

描述衡阳盆地东北部岭茶地区介形类化石9属23种。岭茶地区古近纪介形类动物群以Cypris和Li mnocythere两属最繁盛,可划分为两个化石组合:栗木坪组为Cypris henanensis-Cyprois reniformis-Li mno-cythere honggangensis组合,岭茶组为Li mnocythereirregularis-Cypris favosa-Ilyocypris gaoyouensis组合。岭茶地区栗木坪组与珠江三角洲地区宝月组的介形类动物群相同,岭茶组与华涌组的介形类面貌也基本相同,因此栗木坪组和岭茶组的时代应属晚古新世和早始新世,这与栗木坪组和岭茶组中哺乳动物、古地磁和碳氧同位素的研究结果相一致。

广东三水盆地晚白垩世的介形类动物群

依据24口钻井及4条地表剖面372个样品的采集和分析,三水盆地晚白垩世的介形类动物群含介形类化石28属81种,本文描述其中24属62种,包括1新种.此介形类动物群在数量上以女星介科和玻璃介科最繁盛,次为背足介科、湖花介科和类女星介科,依其横向分布及纵向变化规律,划分为Talicypridea和Porpocypris两个动物群及Talicypridea amoena带、Porpocypris globra带和Porpocypris sphaeroidalis带等3个化石带.依据介形类化石三水组可与南雄群对比,时代属晚白垩世早--中期.大塱山组与上湖组坪岭段对比,时代应属晚白垩世晚期.     

广东南雄盆地上湖组介形类动物群及白垩-第三系界线

南雄盆地上湖组介形类可划分为2个性质不同的动物群及4个化石带:下部为 Porpocypris 动物群,是以中生代属种为主,中、新生代属种混生的过渡性动物群,时代为晚白垩世最晚期;上部为 Cypris 动物群,以 Cypris 属占优势, Sinocypris 属开始出现, Cypridea 等古老属种绝灭为主要特征,时代为早—中古新世.根据介形类演化发展阶段和白垩纪末生物绝灭事件,南雄盆地白垩系与第三系的界线应划在 Porpocypris 与 Cypris 动物群之间,即上湖组坪岭段与下惠段之间.     

云南宁蒗大槽子泥盆纪介形类—古足目类

本文描述和图解介形类化石１０属、４亚属和１４种,包括１新属（Ｐａｒａｕｌｒｉｃｈｉａ）和６新种。其中古足目类８属、３亚属和１２种;豆石目类１属、１亚属和１种;显壳亚目类１属和１种。这些介形类化石分别采自云南宁蒗大槽子泥盆系剖面大槽子组和碳山坪组。根据介形类组合特征,大槽子组的地质时代为晚埃姆斯期,碳山坪组下、中部的地质时代可能属晚埃姆斯期。介形类生态组合属古足目－平足目集群,代表局限的碳酸盐台地环境。在生物地理上,与泥盆纪华南介形类动物地理区系一致。

粤北塘村盆地早白垩世文明司组介形类化石

粤北塘村盆地文明司组的介形类化石计有8属20种,本文描述其中5属13种,称Cypridea epimeco-Mon-golocypris subin fidelis组合,它以早白垩世极度繁盛的Cypridea占绝对优势及全为小个体的Mongolocypris为代表,这个介形类组合可与湖南汝城文明司组的介形类进行对比,时代属早白垩世晚期Aptian期。     

西藏南部聂拉木地区晚泥盆世—早石炭世的介形类

本文系统描述西藏南部聂拉木地区晚泥盆世–早石炭世介形类共计15属24种。根据介形类的组合面貌及孢子、牙形刺的研究结果推断,亚里剖面上的亚里组时代为晚泥盆世–早石炭世,泥盆系-石炭系界线(D-CB)大致位于亚里东沟段顶部至沟陇日段。亚里组产出的介形类生态组合属于光滑速足目集群或艾菲尔生态型,指示亚里组在沉积时为远岸浅水沉积环境,且在上部腊扎蒲段水深变浅。亚里组介形类面貌与华南泥盆纪介形类相似程度高,与俄罗斯和欧美地区也有相似的属种,说明泥盆纪-石炭纪之交介形类的地理隔离并不显著,在各个板块之间有属种交流的可能。     

山东平邑盆地晚白垩世介形类

山东平邑盆地固城组、卞桥组共发现介形类化石21属21种4比较种13未定种,本文记述了其中的17属16种4比较种9未定种。卞桥组一段下部的介形类可称为Talicypridea reticulata-Mongolocypris longa-Frambocythere fangjiaheensis介形类动物群,含化石地层的时代被确认为晚白垩世最晚期,即马斯特里赫特期的晚期。该动物群的发现,为平邑盆地白垩系/古近系界线的确定提供了十分重要的依据。

Preliminary palynological investigation of Saudi Arabian Upper Ordovician glacial sediments

An Ordovician stratigraphically admixed palynomorph assemblage that contains palynomorphs eroded from Middle through Upper Ordovician strata characterizes the Hawban Member (restricted) of the Sarah Formation in central Saudi Arabia. This distinctive assemblage, combined with detailed sedimentology, helps identify the presence of Hirnantian Gondwanan glacial sediments on the Arabian Plate. Similar Ordovician admixed assemblages have been recognized from Upper Ordovician glacial sediments elsewhere along the Gondwanan margin. Within Saudi Arabia the composition of reworked assemblages depends upon the stratigraphic succession exposed to glacial erosion. Sylvanidium? hawbanense, which is one of the acritarchs found in glacial sediments, is newly described from Arabian Upper Ordovician strata.     

新疆晚奥陶世晚期管状体及其古植物学物意义

本文系统描述了产自我国新疆塔里木盆地晚奥陶世晚期的管状体,包括2属8种,其中一个新种。通过对比研究,本管状体组合与Burgess和Edwards(1991）的下组合相当。根据本组合的研究,对Burgess和Edwards的组合进行了补充,其组合由不同类型的光壁管、低分异度的内壁加厚管组成、未见外壁加厚管和丝状体,组合的时代从中奥陶世到早志留世（晚Llandovery)。根据植物学的对比研究,管状体主要产自Nematophytales Lang.     

中国奥陶纪晚期—志留纪早期孢型植物及古地理意义

中国奥陶纪晚期的孢型植物组合以隐孢子为主,不含真正三缝孢,称为Tetrahedraletes medinensis-Dy-adospora murusattenuata-Laevolancis chibrikovae(MMC)组合;中国志留纪早期孢型植物组合以隐孢子为主,包括四分体和单分体,缺失二分体,出现真正三缝孢,并产生不同的类型(光面、具纹饰、具弓形脊等类型),被称为Tet-rahedraletes medinensis-Laevolancis chibrikovae-Ambitisporites avitus/dilutus(MCA)组合。孢型植物化石的某些相似性表明:华南和塔里木板块可能分布于相近的低古纬度,气候特征具有一定的可比性,代表近赤道的热带气候;至少在志留纪早期,华南和印支板块与冈瓦纳大陆距离较近,可能处于同一古气候带,代表相似的生物古地理特征。     

Acritarches ordoviciens des Zekkara (Maroc oriental)

Ordovician Acritarchs (Arenigian-Llanvirnian) werefound in the blacks of the Zekkara (Morocco). A well preserved assemblage proves this age, which was unknown and often indicated as Silurian or Tournaisian-Visean age. In this association, which is especially typical of the Middle Ordovician, about one hundred and twenty taxa have been recognized; some morphologic characteristics of a certain number of them are indicated here.     

Foliomena Fauna (Brachiopoda) from the Upper Ordovician of Sardinia

The late Ordovician brachiopod assemblage from Sardinia is one of the youngest members of the deep-water Foliomena fauna and is characterized by the following core taxa: Christiania , Cyclospira , Dedzetina and Foliomena . The fauna also contains Epitomyonia , Leangella , Glyptorthis and Skenidioides , which are more typical of shallower-water environments during the late Ordovician but occupied deeper-water niches during the Silurian following the termination of the Foliomena fauna. The suprafamilial placement of the family Chrustenoporidae is discussed and the new species Dedzetina serpaglii and Leangella ( Leangella ) fecunda are established. In common with many mid-Ashgill Foliomena faunas the Sardinian assemblage shows significant differences from other faunal developments of this type, reflecting its geographical position and shallower water conditions than those of the classic early Ashgill Foliomena faunas. The brachiopods occur with abundant trilobites belonging to a variant of the cyclopygid fauna. The faunas developed on part of a complex of microcontinents derived from peri-Gondwana during the Ordovician.     

湖北宜昌奥陶系庙坡组疑源类

湖北宜昌地区庙坡组是达瑞威尔阶/桑比阶界线附近的地层,该段地层产出分异度较高,丰度适中的疑源类组合。该组合包括16属,28种,其中7个未定命名种,可与国内、外同期疑源类组合进行对比。庙坡组疑源类组合既产出晚奥陶世特征分子,也产出阿伦尼格期(弗洛阶上部—达瑞威尔阶底部)的特征分子,显示出一定的过渡特色。组合以Baltisphaeridium(17%—52%),Leiosphaeridia(6%—78%)占优势;反映了其沉积环境为离岸较远的外陆棚环境。     

Upper Ordovician microphytoplankton of the Bill's Creek Shale and Stonington Formation,Upper Peninsula of Michigan,U.S.A.: Biostratigraphy and paleogeographic significance

An abundant, diverse, and well-preserved organic-walled microphytoplankton assemblage is described from the Upper Ordovician Bill's Creek Shale and the lower Stonington Formation (Bay de Noc Member) in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, U.S.A. Based on graptolite and conodont evidence, the Bill's Creek Shale and Stonington Formation are Richmondian (=Ashgill) in age. The assemblage is dominated by acritarchs, which comprise 29 species (including the enigmatic palynomorph Gloeocapsomorpha prisca) assigned to 20 genera. The prasinophyte phycomata are represented by undifferentiated species of Leiosphaeridia and Tasmanites. In addition, chitinozoans are abundant, and scolecodonts and graptolite fragments are common. Paleontologic-palynologic and sedimentologic evidence indicates that the Bill's Creek Shale was deposited in a low-energy, shallow, nearshore marine environment. The overlying Bay de Noc Member of the Stonington Formation also accumulated in a low-energy, normal marine environment, but in a more offshore, somewhat deeper water setting. Both formations experienced minor transgressive and regressive episodes as indicated by fluctuations in the composition of the palynoflora. The combined Bill's Creek/Stonington acritarch assemblage closely resembles those described from the Richmondian-aged Maquoketa Shale (Missouri and Kansas), Sylvan Shale (Oklahoma), and Vauréal Formation (Anticosti Island, Québec, Canada). The overall composition of the acritarch assemblage from these four formations reflects a distinctive, recognizably Laurentian character. Nonetheless, many of the Bill's Creek/Stonington acritarchs have been reported from Upper Ordovician localities elsewhere, providing additional evidence for Late Ordovician cosmopolitanism of the marine microphytoplankton community. Additionally, the restricted stratigraphic range of many of the taxa further enhances their biostratigraphic application, both regionally and globally, and reaffirms the Richmondian (=Ashgill) age of the Bill's Creek Shale and Stonington Formation.     

Paleoecology of Sphenothallus on an Upper Ordovician hardground

A hardground from the Upper Ordovician Dillsboro Formation near Dillsboro, Indiana, U.S.A., preserves an assemblage of encrusting and boring fossils on both top and bottom surfaces. The slab is inferred to have been an undercut ledge, and the dominant fossils of the assemblage, holdfasts of the tube-building worm Sphenothallus and trepostome bryozoans, are prevalent on both sides. The clumping of Sphenothallus holdfasts has been statistically demonstrated using a nearest-neighbor technique. Sphenothallus has also been shown to withstand overgrowth in interactions with bryozoans.     

浙江淳安安吉组底部的几丁虫

浙江淳安县大坑坞剖面安吉组底部化石丰富,其中腕足动物组合属于BA3中上部,指示正常浅海底域环境。作者通过分析该层位腕足化石标本的围岩发现一个低分异度的几丁虫组合,包含3属4种,即Ancyrochitina sp.,Belonechitina cf.postrobusta sensu Butcher,Belonechitina sp.,Spinachitina verniersi。该组合具有强烈的奥陶-志留纪过渡色彩,其时代可定为奥陶纪末期至志留纪初期。这是首次在该地区获得奥陶-志留纪过渡地层的几丁虫,有助于开展国际奥陶-志留系界线精细划分对比研究。文中描述了Belonechinacf.postrobusta和Spinachiti-naverniersi。     

Find of Tremadocian ostracodes in cherts of Kazakhstan

First late Tremadocian (Early Ordovician) ostracodes were found in cherts of the Burubaital Formation near the “Burultas” deposit in southern Kazakhstan.
