On the carboniferous-permian boundary

Abstract

An objection has been lodged against the traditional P/C boundary which were still upholded by International Subcommission on Permian Stratigraphy, International Commission on Stratigraphy, IUGS. And the rationality to take the base of theMontiparus Zone as the P/C boundary is comprehensively demonstrated.
