The South Fossa-Magna region is thought to be a Neogene collision zone in central Japan. In order to discuss chronologic bases and paleobiogeographic aspects of the collision tectonics of the region, a symposium "Paleobiogeography of the South Fossa-Magna region" was held on the occasion of the 1987 Annual Meeting of the Palaeontological Society of Japan at Shizuoka University on February 1, 1987. Biostratigraphic frameworks, biogeography based on molluscs, benthic foraminifers, and other fossils, were discussed in the symposium along with the tectonic setting of the region. The following five papers were presented in the symposium.
