摘要 中国泥盆纪可识别出 6个珊瑚生物地理区 :南天山区、古特提斯区、华南区、华北北缘区、准噶尔 兴安区和保山区。其中 ,前 4个区均处于当时赤道两侧的低纬度地区 ,属于老世界大区 ;而后 2个区则可能分别位于北温带和南温带区域内 ,不在老世界大区范畴内。中国泥盆纪珊瑚群大多数都是生活在温暖浅海近岸陆棚上富氧透光带中的群落 ,其分异度、丰度和密度各有不同 ,大致属于海洋底栖生物组合BA3—BA4;但也有的生活在远岸大陆斜坡、波基面之下的宁静环境 ,属于底栖组合BA5—BA6 。 Itisnow generallyrecognizedthattherewere threefirst levelmarine,biogeographicdivisionsofthe Devonianworld : 1.TheOldWorldRealm ,whichincludesEura sia,Australia,NorthAfricaandwesternandArctic NorthAmerica. 2 .TheEasternAmericasRealm (orAppalachian Realm) ,whichincludesmostofeasternNorthAmer icaandnorthernSouthAmerica. 3.TheMalvinokaffricRealm ,whichincludes southernSouthAmerica,southernAfricaandAntarc tica.
