摘要:潜山盆地中、新生代红层由一套单斜的碎屑岩组成,划分为上白垩统高河埠组、古新统望虎墩组(分为上、中、下三段)和痘姆组(分上、下两段)1970年以来,在潜山盆地的持续调查发现了大量脊椎动物化石。迄今为止,潜山盆地古新统共报道了4561(9个未命名的种)脊椎动物,包括爬行类、鸟类和哺乳类。其中哺乳动物最为丰富,共有3346(7个未命名种), 分属10个目16个科。根据化石产出的层位,可以在潜山古新统中识别出7个化石层位。基于哺乳动物生物地层学证据,望虎墩组下段至上段下部可以大致与广东南雄盆地上湖组和江西池江盆地狮子口组对比,对应于亚洲陆相哺乳动物分期的上湖期;望虎墩组上段上部和痘姆组可以与南雄盆地浓山组以及池江盆地的池江组对比,与浓山期相对应。综合我国几个古新世盆地的古地磁研究结果显示,上湖期可以大致与北美陆相哺乳动物分期的PuercanTorrejonian对比,浓山期则与Tiffanian早中期(Ti1–Ti4a)相当。上湖期和浓山期还可以进一步与国际地质年表中的丹尼期(Danian)和塞兰特期(Selandian)对比。因此,潜山盆地发现的脊椎动物化石的时代属于早、中古新世。

Abstract  The Mesozoic and Cenozoic redbeds in the Qianshan Basin comprise a set of monocline clastic rocks and are subdivided into the Late Cretaceous Gaohebu Formation, the Paleocene Wanghudun Formation (including the Lower, Middle, and Upper members) and Doumu Formation (including the Lower and Upper members). Continuous investigations in the Qianshan Basin since 1970 have resulted in discovery of a lot of vertebrate specimens. Up to date, 61 species (including 9 unnamed ones) in 45 genera of vertebrates, representing reptiles, birds and mammals, have been reported from the Paleocene of the Qianshan Basin. Among them, mammals are most diverse and have been classified into 46 species (7 unnamed) of 33 genera, representing 16 families in 10 orders. According to their stratigraphic occurrence, seven fossiliferous horizons can be recognized in the Qianshan Paleocene. Based on the evidence of mammalian biostratigraphy, the strata from the Lower Member through the lower part of the Upper Member of Wanghudun Formation could be roughly correlated to the Shanghu Formation of the Nanxiong Basin (Guangdong Province) and the Shizikou Formation of the Chijiang Basin (Jiangxi Province), corresponding to the Shanghuan Asian Land Mammal Age (ALMA). Both the upper part of the Upper Member of Wanghudun Formation and the Doumu Formation could be correlated to the Nongshan Formation of the Nanxiong Basin and the Chijiang Formation of the Chijiang Basin, corresponding to the Nongshanian ALMA. Paleomagnetic results from several Chinese Paleocene basins suggest that the Shanghuan is roughly correlative to the Puercan and Torrejonian North American Land Mammal Ages (NALMA), while the Nongshanian correlative to the early to middle Tiffanian (Ti1–4a). The Shanghuan and the Nongshanian are probably correlated to the Danian and the Selandian of the Global Geologic Time Scale. Therefore, all the fossil vertebrates collected in the Qianshan Basin are the Early and Middle Paleocene in age.
