“…The sections provide a particularly detailed record of the end-Middle Permian (end-Guadalupian) killing event, the fusilinid fossils suggesting a protracted interval of high-stress at the boundary. The pattern is similar to that identified in Guizhou Province, SW China, by Yang et al (1999Yang et al ( , 2000. Ota and Isozaki (2006) consider that large-scale explosive volcanism may have triggered the killing although they do not specify an extinction mechanism.…”

“…In contrast, fusulinoidean foraminifers suffered extreme losses during the Guadalupian and most investigators regard the fusulinoidean extinction as a short-lived event. Some place it at or near the end of the Capitanian Age (Yang et al, 1999(Yang et al, , 2004Ota and Isozaki, 2006;Isozaki et al, 2011), whereas others argue for a mid-Capitanian timing (Wignall et al, 2009;2012;Bond et al, 2010). A prevailing sentiment is that the Guadalupian fusulinoidean extinction preferentially affected large, morphologically complex and presumably photosymbiont-bearing species in the families Schwagerinidae and Neoschwagerinidae, while smaller forms were essentially unscathed (Ross, 1995;Wilde, 2002;Yang et al, 2004;Ota and Isozaki, 2006;Isozaki and Aljinović, 2009).…”

It is important to point out that, with the notable exception of Yang et al (1999Yang et al ( , 2004, who compiled a high resolution Guadalupian database of 179 species from five localities in South China, most investigators have reported fusulinoidean extinctions at the genus-or family-level from relatively short stratigraphic intervals at individual localities or small groups of localities. Thus, the actual basis for establishing the timing and differential taxonomic severity of the Guadalu-pian fusulinoidean extinction is less robust than generally assumed.…”

A comprehensive, high resolution stratigraphic database of fusulinoidean foraminifers reveals that this group of protists suffered extreme losses during the Guadalupian extinction. Most species (88%) were eliminated gradually over the course of 9 myr during the Wordian and Capitanian ages. A pulse of greatly elevated per capita extinction frequency occurred during the last million years of the Capitanian (260–259 Ma). Contrary to prevailing opinion, the end-Capitanian event did not preferentially eliminate large, morphologically complex species in the families Schwagerinidae and Neoschwagerinidae, because most species in those families were already extinct. Rather, 69 percent of the species eliminated at the end of the Capitanian were small, morphologically conservative representatives of the Ozawainellidae, Schubertellidae and Staffellidae. Survivors from these families comprised the low-diversity association of Wuchiapingian fusulinoideans. Schubertellids, and to a lesser extent ozawainellids, diversified in the late Wuchiapingian and Changhsingian ages before the final demise of fusulinoideans during the end-Permian mass extinction. The Wordian–Capitanian fusulinoidean attrition might have been caused by photosymbiont loss and habitat reduction stemming from an interval of global cooling termed the Kamura event (∼265–259.5 Ma), although the onset of fusulinoidean diversity decline predates geochemical evidence for the beginning of the Kamura event by ∼3 myr. The end-Capitanian extinction pulse might reflect environmental deterioration from the combined effects of global cooling, Emeishan effusive volcanism and sea-level lowstand.

“…The study of the diversity and its changes of fusulinaceans has great significance for understanding the evolution process and pattern of marine invertebrate in the late Paleozoic [4,10] . Recently, some researchers have established a composite standard section and made much progress in the evolution process, extinction rate, extinction process, and selectivity in the extinction process of fusulinaceans, using abundant fusulinacean fossil and the data of its stratigraphical distributions in South China [11][12][13][14] .…”

The study on the interrelation between sea-level changes and biodiversity with its evolution has great significance for understanding the impact of global changes on organic evolution and exploring the inherent laws of life-environment coevolution in geological history. In this paper, the stratigraphic distribution of fusulinacean fauna in the Carboniferous-Permian boundary section at Xikou, Zhen'an County, Shaanxi Province, is analyzed quantitatively, and the relationship between the species diversity of fusulinaceans and relative sea-level changes is discussed. As a whole, the species numbers of fusulinacean fauna experience a rapid increase and an obvious decline in Xikou, Zhen'an County, from the Late Carboniferous to the Early Permian. There is a significant increase in species diversity around the Carboniferous-Permian boundary, which is one of the biggest bio-events of the fusulinacean fauna, and represents the radiation of Pseudoschwagerininae subfamily in the studied area. Integrated fusulinacean species diversity into sequence stratigraphic framework, detailed study suggests that the species diversity of the fusulinaceans is closely related to its relative stratigraphic location, and is essentially controlled by the sea-level changes, especially by the high-frequency sea-level changes. Generally, the species diversity of fusulinaceans is low, and the number of first and last appearance datum is small in the lower unit of high-frequency depositional cycle formed during the quick rise of the sea level; whereas the species diversity of fusulinaceans is high, and the number of first and last appearance datum is large in the upper unit of high-frequency cycle formed during the slow fall of the sea level. Within the third-order depositional sequence, the species diversity of the fusulinaceans at the first flooding surfaces and the maximum flooding surfaces is low, and it increases upward. The fusulinacean species diversity is low within the transgressive systems track, and it is high within the highstand systems track. The second-order rise and fall in sea level coincide with the bloom and decline of high order taxa of fusulinaceans.Fossil is a direct record of origin, development, decline, and extinction of living things. Utilizing fossil record to study biodiversity and its evolution in geological history is one of the basic goals of paleontology [1] . Since the last decades, the study on biodiversity and mass extinction has become an international "hot-spot" issue in paleontology field through establishing the global databases of marine invertebrate, drawing the curve of the biodiversity, and discovering the mass extinctions [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] . The Fusulinacea are a diverse group of Paleozoic foraminifera that evolved rapidly during the Carboniferous and Permian periods. The study of the diversity and its changes of fusulinaceans has great significance for understanding the evolution process and pattern of marine invertebrate in the late Paleozoic [4,10] . Recently, some researchers have established...
