摘要
This article reports a radiolarian fauna from the upper Dalong(大隆) Formation,Ping-dingshan(平顶山),Chaohu(巢湖),Anhui(安徽) Province,which includes 15 genera and 23 species.One new species,Copicyntra tongi Gui and Feng n.sp.,is described.Comparison of the fauna,lithology and biotic associations with those from Meishan(煤山) D and Dongpan(东攀) sections shows that the Dalong Formation in the Pingdingshan Section is deposited in a deep-water shelf basin,about 60-200 m in depth.On the basis of the biotic composition,diversity and morphology,the microfossil fauna from the Pingdingshan Section can be divided into three sedimentary assemblages and the extinction proc-esses of the assemblages are discussed.
