With the definition and adoption of the Global Stratotype Section and Point(GSSP) for base of the Visean in China,the newly synthesized zonations and correlation of some significant fossil groups:foraminifera,conodont,coral and brachiopoda near the Tournaisian-Visean boundary beds are reviewed,which help in the recognition of the boundary in various sedimentary facies.The occurrence of two physical events,one pre- and one post- the Tournaisian-Visean boundary is emphasized,which allows for recognition of the position close to the Tournaisian-Visean boundary in the field.The regional correlation in southern China and international correlation throughout Eurasia around the Tournaisian-Visean boundary beds with the GSSP is proposed.
