DISTRIBUTION AND HORIZONS OF THE PRECIOUS MESOZOIC FOSSILS IN WESTERN LIAONING AND ADJACENT AREAS

Since 1990s, a large amount of precious zoolite and plant fossils have been found in the strata from Haifangou formation to Fuxin formation of Mesozoic era in Western Liaoning Province and the adjacent Daohugou area of Inner Mongolia. These fossils were reported and described separately in different literatures both in China and abroad. It is inconvenient for people to gather the data in their researching, studying and teaching. On the basis of field survey, this paper sorts out the reported data and catalogs the fossils in 109 genera of 124 species, with their Latin names, localities, horizons and times, trying to show a full view of the fossils in the area.
