Response of Ostracods (Crustacea) to the Devonian F—F event: Evidence from the Yangdi and Nandong sections in Guangxi, South China

This study focuses on the Late Devonian ostracods and their responses to the F—F (Frasnian-Famennian) event based on abundant materials collected from the Yangdi and Nandong sections in South China. More than half (53%) of the benthic ostracod species disappeared at the F—F boundary in the Yangdi section of slope facies, whereas most benthic ostracod species survived the F—F crisis in the Nandong section of basinal facies, with the extinction of...
