The eastern Tethyan fusulinacean faunas are best represented by Chinese examples. They are taxonomically much more diverse than those reported from outside China, particularly those of the Middle and Late Permian. Some fusulinaceans characteristi cof China are kept in the Museum of Nature and Human Activities ,Hyogo, Japan. They are available for comparative fusulinacean studies between China and sources outside China. Fusulinaceans contained in 130 pieces of limestone thin sections, prepared in China, range from Bashkirian (lowest Upper Carboniferous) to Changhsingian (uppermost Permian). Some photomicrograhs of their limestone petrologies and well-oriented fusulinaceans are included herewith, to illustrat easpects of the present materials, in addition to brief notes on thei rgeographic and biogeographic distribution sL.imestone petrology and foraminiferal faunal composition of each are shown in appendix.
