Abstract

This paper is PartⅢ of “Geology of Akiyoshi” and is concerned the Pennsylvanian and Permian fusulinids of the Akiyoshi limestone group of Southwest Japan. It includes the concise stratigraphical consideration of the fusulinid zones of the Akiyoshi limestone group summarized from PartⅠ of this series of paper in addition to further information obtained by recent investigation. The Systematic Paleontology of this paper consists of two parts; Parts A and B respectively concern the Pennsylvanian and Permian fusulinids of the Akiyoshi limestone group, comprising 101 specis of 25 genera. The Pennsylvanian fusulinids described in Part A include an unnamed form of Nankinella, each one of new and previously described species of Staffella, one previously described and two unnamed forms of Eoschubertella, one previously described species of Fusiella, each one of new, previously described, and unnamed forms of Profusulinella, two new, four previously described and four unnamed forms of Fusulinella, and one new species of Fusulina. The Permian fusulinids described in Part B contain one new species of Ozawainella, one new and three unnamed forms of Nankinella, two previously described species of Staffella, one previously described and an unnamed forms of Schubertella, an unnamed form of Quasifusulina, nine new, six previously described and an unnamed forms of Triticites, each one of new, previously described and unnamed forms of Dunbarinella, two new, eight previously described and three unnamed forms of Schwagerina, one new species of Paraschwagerina, each one of previously described and unnamed forms of Pseudoschwagerina, each one of previously described and unnamed forms of Nagatoella, each five of new and previously described species of Pseudofusulina, four previously described and unnamed forms of Parafusulina, one previously described species of Verbeekina, one previously described species of Misellina, two previously described species of Pseudodoliolina, four previously described and an unnamed forms of Neoschwagerina, three previously described, one new and an unnamed forms of Yabeina, two previously described species of Afghanella, and two previously described species of Sumatrina.
