The Meishucun section in Jinning county, Yunnan province, represents a stratotype section for both the Sinian- Cambrian boundary and the Meishucuniaa Stage, and serves at thesame timeas a Chinesecandidatefor globalstratotypesectionand pointfor thePrecambrian-Cambrian boundary. The Present monograph is as overall and systematic summary of the results of researches on the Meishucun section conducted in recent years, dealing with biostratigraphy, lithostratigraphy, isotopic geochronology and magnetostratigraphy
