Darriwilian to Sandbian (Ordovician) Graptolites from Northwest China analyzes the significance of these exquisite, mostly pyritic, graptolites of the middle to late Ordovician period from North China and Tarim, China―locations that have developed the world’s most complete successions of strata and fossil records.
The book provides the first systematic account of the renowned graptolite faunas, with over 100 species belonging to 45 genera and 15 families preserved in black shale and limestone, also presenting a comprehensive accounting of the graptolites during the critical transition from the middle to late Ordovician period with important data on new morphologies, the latest conventions in classification, diversity change and evolution, refined biostratigraphy divisions, and correlation with other major regions or continents.
The book provides a key resource for paleontologists, stratigraphic specialists, petroleum geologists, and graduate students in varying fields of geology.
The result of nearly 30 years of stratigraphic investigations in Northwest China, Darriwilian to Katian (Ordovician) Graptolites from Northwest China is a systematic palaeontology of 124 species belonging to 45 genera through the mid-Darriwilian to early Katian periods, illustrated with taxonomic, stratigraphic, and biogeographic comment.
Darriwilian to Katian (Ordovician) Graptolites from Northwest China presents the distribution, identification, and correlation of these graptolite and conodont faunas with special reference to their systematic taxonomy, range, and geographic distribution.
