| Abstract |
In Belgium and adjacent areas, 38 biozones (including 43 subzones) can be distinguished in the interval ranging from the base of the Strunian to the top of Yeadonian. The subdivisions of the Dinantian are based essentially on conodonts, foraminifers and rugose corals. Namurian stages (with the exception of the Pendleian) are recognized by goniatites and, for some limestone layers, by conodonts and foraminifers. Most of the biozones can be found in Western Europe and a large number of them occur elsewhere in the Eurasian Province. Conodonts, foraminifers and rugose corals that can be used for widespread correlation in the Lower Carboniferous have been identified. |
