陕西南部最古老的放射虫化石

用酸蚀法从陕西镇巴县小洋剖面下寒武统水井沱组分离出大量保存精美的双瓣壳格子状化石,经电子探针进行成分分析和扫描电镜下进行形态学研究,确认为迄今已知最古老的放射虫化石。这些最早出现的放射虫不同于泡沫虫类,而出入意外地是一类褐色虫（Phaeodoria）。基于这些材料,建立了1个新科（Eoconchariidae）、3个新属（Eoconcharium、Fusuconohnrium和Quadratapora）和7个新种。     

南京湖山地区下二叠统孤峰组放射虫动物群

南京湖山地区下二叠统孤峰组含有极丰富的放射虫化石,主要由阿尔拜虫类albaillellids.球形多囊虫类sphericalpolycystine和十字多囊虫类stauraxonpolvcystine组成。文章对部分化石进行了描述,并建立1新属新种。根据放射虫在地层中的分布,提出两个组合带,即Pseudoalbaillella fusiformis-P. longtanensis带和Ruzhencevispongus uralicus带,并将这两个组合带与国内外时代大致相当的放射虫组合进行了比较,还讨论了这两个组合的时代。     

雅鲁藏布江南带白垩纪地层划分及特征

通过1∶25万区域地质调查,在藏南普兰县拉昂错—萨嘎县旦嘎东雅鲁藏布江结合带南带修康群中发现了大量放射虫化石,通过对该区沉积地层的详细调查,结合放射虫化石对原划修康群进行了充分解体,新厘定出侏罗系至始新统7个组级岩石地层单位,其中白垩系划分为折巴组与桑单林组。折巴组以杂色硅质岩、泥岩和页岩为主,夹砂岩、玄武岩等,与上覆上侏罗统旦嘎组和下伏下白垩统桑单林组呈整合接触关系,含丰富的早白垩世放射虫化石; 桑单林组以杂色石英砂岩、砂岩、泥岩、页岩及硅质岩为主,夹玄武岩等,整合于下白垩统折巴组与古近系蹬岗组之间,含丰富的晚白垩世放射虫与有孔虫化石。白垩系折巴组与桑单林组的建立与研究,丰富和完善了中生代特提斯洋盆区(雅鲁藏布江南带地层分区)的岩石地层沉积序列,提高了地层的研究水平,为研究该区沉积古地理环境和大地构造演化提供了新的基础资料。

广西南丹—大厂地区泥盆系中发现放射虫

我们在对广西南丹一大厂地区进行矿田构造及含矿地层研究时,在泥盆系硅质岩中发现大量放射虫化石,初步鉴定为泡沫虫亚目。放射虫个体具薄壳、孔小、构造纤细、放射刺较长、侧刺发育等特征(照片1、2)。在近矿体处,由于热流体影响,有的放射虫侧剌已被铁质交代,壳内个体重结晶。化石薄片经中国地质科学院地质研究所地层古生物专家宋天锐和王乃文鉴定,确认为放射虫岩。     

内蒙古阿拉善地区恩格尔乌苏缝合带二叠纪放射虫及其地质意义

报道了采自恩格尔乌苏缝合带的蛇绿混杂岩硅质外来岩块中的二叠纪阿尔拜虫目放射虫化石,包括3属7种,可以划分为2个放射虫化石组合,能够与日本、美国的放射虫化石带进行对比,其地质时代分别为早二叠世和中二叠世晚期—晚二叠世早期。恩格尔乌苏缝合带位于华北板块和塔里木板块之间,这些放射虫化石的发现为研究恩格尔乌苏缝合带的构造演化提供了新的证据。鉴于其中最新的放射虫组合的地质时代为中二叠世晚期—晚二叠世早期,认为华北板块与塔里木板块之间自中二叠世晚期—晚二叠世早期曾经存在古海洋,即华北板块和塔里木板块的拼合时间是晚二叠世晚期。

新疆准噶尔地区泥盆系火山碎屑岩中放射虫的发现及其地质意义

泥盆系课题组,在准噶尔地区发现20余层含放射虫的火山碎屑岩,放射虫均产于被化石证明了的下、中、上泥盆统中.在火山碎屑岩中产放射虫,国外已有报导,国内尚无正式报导.从而对该区岩相古地理提出了新认识.     

菲律宾海盆东北部晚始新世以来放射虫及其古海洋学意义

研究了菲律宾海盆东北部“大洋钻探工程”１２５航次７８２Ａ孔晚始新世以来的放射虫化石。根据Ｓａｎｆｉｌｉｐｐｏ等１９８５年的分带,将研究区自下而上划分为１０个带。讨论了始新世与渐新世、渐新世与中新世、中中新世与晚中新世、中新世与上新世以及上新世与第四纪的界线。研究区存在两个沉积间断,分别位于晚渐新世与早中新世晚期之间和中中新世与晚中新世之间。研究区第四纪放射虫化石仍以暖水分子为主,冷水分子分布较浅。依据放射虫化石分异度曲线得出,晚第三纪以来本区存在５个相对暖水期和５个相对较凉期,渐新世时处于冷水期,这与钙质超微化石复合分异度和碳酸钙含量曲线的变化是一致的。晚渐新世与早中新世晚期之间的沉积间断是由于中新世南极冰盖扩展造成大洋底层洋流活动加剧而形成的。     

新疆库鲁克塔格地区寒武-奥陶系硅质岩的岩石学特征及其成因分析

新疆塔里木盆地东北缘库鲁克塔格地区硅质岩主要出现在下寒武统和下、中奥陶统海相沉积层序.从下寒武统到中奥陶统硅质岩岩性自下而上由黑色致密块状非晶质硅质岩到灰黑色非晶质含泥质(碳质)放射虫硅质岩再到含外碎屑放射虫硅质岩;岩石中放射虫化石的含量逐渐增多,个体逐渐变大;放射虫化石外表呈现的搬运磨蚀特征显示具逐渐增强的趋势;岩石的成层性变好,粒度也表现出明显的正韵律性.据硅质岩的岩性、生物、层序和构造背景分析认为:硅质岩沉积所需的SiO2有海底火山气射和生物作用两个来源;自下而上生物作用提供的硅质逐渐占主导,形成水深逐渐变浅,从寒武纪深海硅质岩变为中奥陶统次深海硅质岩.     

李氏叶肢介（Leaid）在内蒙古上二叠统陶海营子组 的发现及其意义

2009年8月,在内蒙古大兴安岭地区扎鲁特旗陶海营子重新测制了上二叠统陶海营子组剖面。自下而上共发现3层叶肢介（包括2层李氏叶肢介类Leaid化石）,经鉴定为单脊型与双脊型的新种类。在中国,二叠纪的李氏叶肢介类（Leaid）化石前人仅在甘肃肃南县上二叠统肃南组发现过,计2属3种[1],其后一直未见报道。这类化石在大兴安岭地区的发现,填补了该时期中国东部李氏叶肢介类（Leaid）分布的空白,为该时期地层的区域对比和时代确定提供了重要的化石证据,具有重要的地层意义。同时,为进一步探讨它们的分布、迁徙、古生态、生物地理区系等增加了实际材料,具有古地理和古构造学上的理论意义。     

山东惠民凹陷东营组尾花介科化石的发现及其意义

在山东惠民凹陷渐新统东营组二段发现了浪花介超科尾花介科Recticytherura ualisicosta gen.et sp.nov.－－U形脊直尾花介（新属、新种），化石产于该段近底部含生物砂质灰岩中。这是本区乃至渤海湾盆地下第三系尾花介科化石的首次发现。对该新属、新种进行了描述并据铰合构造、尾突、放射毛细管及壳壁构造等特征判断其为海相介形类。与之共生的介形类的组合特征、壳壁的元素组成特征及围岩的碳、氧同位素特征反映了微咸－半咸水的沉积环境，并由古湖泊的扩张和古气候分析认为东营组二段沉积期在惠民凹陷发生了一次短暂海泛。     

A New Titanosauriform Sauropod from the Early Late Cretaceous of Dongyang, Zhejiang Province

A new titanosauriform sauropod Dongyangosaurus sinensis gen. et sp. nov. from the early Late Cretaceous of Dongyang County, Zhejiang Province, is erected based on a partial postcranial skeleton. It is characterized by complex laminae on the lateral surface of the neural spines and postzygapophyses of dorsal vertebrae, a distinct fossa on the ventral surfaces of the prezygapophyses of dorsal vertebrae, distinct fossae are also present on the lateral surface of the postzygapophysis of anterior caudal vertebrae; pubis is shorter than ischium, the small obturator foramen of pubis elongated, and nearly closed. The lamina complexity of dorsal vertebrae in Dongyangosaurus indicates that a higher diversity of titanosauriformes occurred during the early Late Cretaceous in China.     

宜昌地区早志留世（Llandoverian）腕足类一新科Spinochonetidae (fam. nov.)及其意义

腕足类新科Spinochonetidae(fam.nov.)建立在宜昌地区志留系兰多维列统罗惹坪组下段中部(上埃隆阶)的Spinochonetes Rong,Xu et Yang(1974)和Spinolella(gen.nov.)两个属,以及一个属、种未定的分类单元的基础上。新科成员仅有从腹壳喙部伸出一根直的腹喙刺,这与Chonetoidea超科内的Strophochonetidae科以及Chonestrophiidae科众成员的铰合缘刺都是从腹壳铰合缘上伸出来的有着本质差别。另外,本文还对Spinochonetes以及它的属型种S.notata Rong,Xu et Yang(1974)进行重要图解和补充描述。与此同时,对Spinolella(gen.nov),以及S.minuta(gen.et sp.nov.)进行系统描述和对比。据目前所知,新科成员只分布于我国鄂西、黔东北、陕南和川北等地,属于上扬子台地的土族居民。因为Spinochonetidae(fam.nov.)属于腕足类独特的一个类型,演化快,贝体极小,保存精美,因此具有分类学、地层对比,以及恢复古环境等方面的重要意义。     

New Bivalved Arthropods from the Cambrian (Series 3, Drumian Stage) of Western Hunan,South China

We report two new three-dimensionally phosphatized microfossils, Cambrolongispina reticulata gen. et sp. nov. and Cambrolongispina glabra gen. et sp. nov., from the middle Cambrian （Series 3, Drumian Stage） at Wangcun, Yongshun County, western Hunan, South China. They are bivalved arthropods, with thin, pliable, originally chitinous or chitin-calcareous shields （c. 350-517 I1 m long）. The shields are equipped with a pair of antero-dorsal spines. The spines are internally hollow, varying in length from 1/2 of to as long as the shield length in C. reticulata, and uniformly longer than the shield length in C. glabra. The spines of C. reticulata are ornamented with a longitudinal row of conical or blade-shaped denticles along the posterior edge. Cambrolongispina lacks marginal rims, valve lobation and sulci which are diagnostic of the Bradoriida sensu stricto. It also lacks a donblure/duplicature characteristic of phosphatocopids and some bradoriids. It could be related to the Monasteriidae （which may belong to Bradoriida sensu lato）, both characterized by a pair of antero-dorsal spines. Cambrolongispina may have been meiofaunai detritus feeders that lived on or within sediments. The antero-dorsal spines may have been sensory organs to detect nearby predators. The posterior denticles on these spines might have facilitated the sensory function of the spines.     

A remarkable new genus of Mantispidae (Insecta,Neuroptera) from Cretaceous amber of Myanmar and its implications on raptorial foreleg evolution in Mantispidae

Micromantispa cristata gen. et sp. nov. is described from the Cretaceous amber of Myanmar. This is the smallest mantispid. Its raptorial forelegs are relatively slender, bearing dense spines and setae on femora and tibia. The first tarsal segment has two long spines on the dorsal apical, which is newly observed in the family. The morphological diversity of the prothorax and raptorial forelegs in Mantispidae through the geological history are discussed.

Stromatolitic microbiota from the middle Proterozoic Wumishan Formation (Jixian Group) of the Ming Tombs,Beijing, China

A relatively diverse microbiota, preserved in-situ, has been discovered in cherty stratiform stromatolites of the middle Proterozoic Wumishan Formation (c. 1200–1300 Maold), Jixian Group, in the Ming Tombs area of Beijing. This microfossil assemblage consists of two parts: (1) the mat-building and mat-dwelling benthos which mostly belong to “long-lasting” taxa and are mostly common with those of other Proterozoic microbiotas; and (2) allochthonous elements including some plankton and peculiar structures which are either new forms first described here or taxa shared with some contemporaneous or penecontemporaneous microbiotas elsewhere. The latter may have more stratigraphic significance.Bivariate analysis on two characters measured (length and width) has been used in the classification of the elongate microfossils, and the results demonstrate that biometrical methods are effective in the taxonomy of some Precambrian microfossils.The following new taxa are described:Archaeoellipsoides obesus sp. nov., Archaeoellipsoides conjunctivus sp. nov., Bactrophycus oblongum gen. et sp. nov., Bactrophycus dolichum gen. et sp. nov., Callosicoccus crauros gen. et sp. nov.     

A New Family of Sauropod Dinosaur from the Upper Cretaceous of Tianzhen, Shanxi Province, China

A new gigantic sauropod, Huabeisaurus allocates gen. et sp. nov., about 20 m in length and 5 m in height, was discovered in the Upper Cretaceous Huiquanpu Formation, Tianzhen County, Shanxi Province. It is notably different from Diplodocidae, Titanosauridae and Nemegtosauridae in the following aspects: the teeth are strong, peg-like with a length ratio of the tooth crown to tooth root at about 3 to 1; the cervical vertebrae are long with forked spines; the spines in dorsal vertebrae are relatively high, unbifiarcated; the caudal vertebrae are amphicoelous, with anterior neural spines and unbifurcated spines and chevrons; the femur is straight and long, narrow and flat and the tibia and fibula are long and flat. These characters show that the described genus should represent a new family, Huabeisauridae fam. nov. The discovery enriches the sauropod dinosaur record in China, and is quite significant to the study of the taxonomy, evolution, migration, extinction and palaeobiogeographic provincialism of the
