摘　　要：The Meishucunian Stage is rich in fossils and is characterized by their distinct evolutionsequence, so based on the established zonation of small shelly fossils, the sequence of tracefossils and the stratotype point (China "B", the dividing point between Units 6 and 7 or be-tween fossil zones Ⅰ and Ⅱ), the Meishucun section is more widely applicable to both region-al and intercontinental correlations. In this respect, the stage is well suited for both thecarbonate and the clastic-rock sedimentary regions. The Meishucunian small shelly fossil assem-blages are correlated with those found in Siberia of U.S.S.R., Mongolia, Central England,South Australia and Northwestern Canada. The Meishucunian trace fossil sequence can alsobe broadly correlated with that in the Russian Platform of U.S.S.R., Northwest Europe,Great Britain, Spain, Australia, the Western United States and Southeastern Canada.The Meishucunian Stage is rich in fossils and is characterized by their distinct evolution sequence, so based on the established zonation of small shelly fossils, the sequence of trace fossils and the stratotype point (China 'B', the dividing point between Units 6 and 7 or be- tween fossil zones Ⅰ and Ⅱ), the Meishucun section is more widely applicable to both region- al and intercontinental correlations.
