In this research, the value of conodont studies is emphasized for biostratigraphy.
From the base of the Emsian to the Lower Carboniferous. 53 conodont zones
are recognized, which coincide with those of the international conodont
zonation. Stage boundaries are defined by conodont-markers which had been
ratified elsewhere by the International conmmission on Stratigraphy or
Recommended by the subcommission on Devonian Stratigraphy, International
Commission on Stratiigraphy. This zonation and definition fulfil the requirements
of current international usage.
