Abstract:
SummaryDevonian near-shore deposits are widespread in South China and rich in benthic corals. The Middle Devonian (Givetian) and Upper Devonian (Frasnian) rugose corals in South China flourished in a near-shore shallow water environment. Significant works on Devonian biostratigraphy and corals have been done in the sixties and the seventies of the previous century by Wang and Yu(1962), Wang et al.(1964, 1965, 1974, 1979), Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology, CAS (1974), Liao (1977), Liao et al. (1978, 1979), Hou (1978), Yang et al. (1979), Yu et al. (1979).
