pp. 147-152, in English

Abstract:

New observations confirm that the Permo-Triassic transitional sequence in Meishan is rather condensed and discontinuities occur within Bed 26 as early lithified surfaces. These discontinuity surfaces, the appearance of Hindeodus parvus and the rapid shift in δ13C values within Bed 27 represent significant environmental changes during the Permo-Triassic transitional interval.
