This level is consistent with the first appearance of Changhsingian index fusulinid Palaeofusulina sinensis and tapashanitid ammonoids. The speciation event from Clarkina longicuspidata to C. wangi occurs just above the flooding surface of the second parasequence in the Changxing Limestone. In addition, the boundary interval is clearly recognizable by the depletion of isotopic carbon ratios and the normal polarity zone appearing above the Late Wuchiapingian reversed polarity zone. Section C, about 300 m to the west of Section D, exposes more of the upper Longtan Formation. It clearly shows the transitional nature of deposition across the Longtan/Changxing formational boundary, and thus is described as a supplementary reference section.展开更多

The terms Lower/Early, Middle, and Late/Upper Cambrian are confusing because they connote the second, third, and fourth epochs/series of the period/system, and because each is defined in a way that is different from traditional definitions of those intervals. The use of these terms will ultimately lead to confusion between older concepts of Early, Middle, and Late Cambrian and newer, refined concepts of the epochs. The philosophy of the International Subcommission on Cambrian Stratigraphy for establishing a clear subdivision of the Cambrian on a global scale is unambiguous： stratigraphic terms previously in use lack global applicability and should not be adopted as chronostratigraphic/geochronologic units in the developing global stratigraphic chart of the Cambrian. Moreover, all series and stage names should be GSSP （stratotype section）-based.展开更多
