Open publisher page 30 citations

Abstract

Devonian radiolarians from four new sections at Shaijingpo, Lila, Bazhai, and Shiti Reservoir in southern China are described. Faunas from these localities are assigned to eight families, 15 genera and 30 species, with the introduction of one new species Trilonche parapalimbola n. sp. Wang. The stratigraphic significance of the Middle Devonian Eoalbaillella lilaensis fauna, morphotypic variation within the genus Helenifore and the abundance and diversity of the Upper Devonian Holoeciscus foremanae fauna are discussed.
