Abstract:
The Lower Cretaceous Dalazi Formation is widely developed in Jiaohe Basin, with ostracoda, conchostraca and plant debris fossils occurred near Baojia village. Through the stratified fossil collection in 1:2 000 surveyed geological section, 5 genera with 9 species of ostracoda are discovered from Daliazi Formation at the section on the north of Baojia village, including 1 similar species and 6 undefined species:
Cypridea paracavernosa,
C. concinaformis,
C. sp.,
Candoniella cf.
candida,
Candoniella sp.,
Scabriculocypris sp.,
Mongolianella sp.,
Candona sp. 1 and
Candona sp. 2, respectively. Combined with previous fossil findings, the
Cypridea paracavernosa-
C. concinaformis assemblage is established, which could be compared with the ostracoda of Daliazi Formation in Yanbian, Jilin Province, and the age was probably the late Early Cretaceous.
