palaeontologia Sinica(Whole Number 159, New series B,No.16)
The Cambrian trilobites described and discussed in this monograph, were collected from the Cambrian formations in the Yangtze platform, or geographically speaking in southwestern China including eastern and southeastern Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, southern Shaanxi, Hubei and western Hunan. The field works were carried out in 1956, 1962-1967 and 1970-1973 respectively. In the meantime many Cambrian sections including the type sections have been measured in the Gorge district of Yangtze, western Hubei and in eastern Yunnan and northern Guizhou, and immense Cambrian trilobites have been collected there, which enable us to advance our knowledge of the Cambrian faunal successions; the component parts of the trilobite faunas in Redlichian province; the distribution, ontogeny, phylogeny and ecology of redlichid trilobites; the taxonomy of Eodiscina, Redlichiina and Oryctocephalacea; The relation between biogeographical province and ecological province; the correlation between two major Cambrian faunal provinces of the world etc. Since the early Lower Cambrian deposits are wanting in North China platform, the fully developed and richly trilobite fossiliferous Early Cambrian succession in southwestern China, which has been assigned to four stages, may be used as a correlation standard for the Lower Cambrian of China and for the Lower Cambrian of the whole Redlichian province as well.
The specimens of trilobites described and figured in this monograph are kept in the Museum of the Nanjing Institute of Geology and Paleontology, Academia Sinica.
