Smithian (Early Triassic) ammonoid faunas from northwestern Guangxi (South China) : Taxonomy and Biochronology Paperback / softback
by Arnaud Brayard, Hugo Bucher
Part of the Fossils and Strata Monograph Series series
Paperback / softback
Description
The highly fossiliferous succession of Smithian (Early Triassic) ammonoids from northwestern Guangxi (South China) provides a key equatorial record, at the boundary between Tethys and Panthalassa.
After the end-Permian extinction, ammonoids reached their first major diversity peak during Smithian times, coupled with a marked contrast in their latitudinal distribution.
This monograph contains a part of the fundamental taxonomic and biostratigraphic data of a more comprehensive research project addressing patterns of recovery in time and space of Early Triassic ammonoids and other marine clades, in conjunction with global paleoceanographic and paleoclimatic changes.
