fig. 19 Sergeeva's conodont zones are correlated with the conodont zones<br />

proposed now. The chronostratigraphic units from which Sergeeva obtained<br />

her conodont faunas were put in this table as well.<br />

Sergeeva's Zone of Cordylodus angulatus is characterized by the occurrence<br />

of Cordylodus angulatus together with Cordylodus rotundatus, Drepanodus<br />

arcuatus and Drepanoistodus acuminatus, before the first appearance<br />

of Paroistodus parallelus, Drepanoistodus forceps, and Drepanoistodus inconstans;<br />

all these species except Cordylodus angulatus and Cordylodus<br />

rotundatus being named as emended in this paper. This Zone of Cordylodus<br />

angulatus is correlative with the rock-interval on north-western Oland, containing<br />

our Cordylodus rotundatus up to Prioniodus deltatus Zones inclusive<br />

(figs. 15 and 19). Part of Sergeeva's Zone of Cordylodus angulatus thus<br />

appears to correspond to the Zone of Shumardia and the Zone of<br />

Apatokephalus serratus as described by Tjernvik (1956) from Kopingsklint<br />

(see fig. 19).<br />

Sergeeva's Subzone of Drepanodus proteus seems to be characterized by<br />

the concurrence of the ranges of our Paroistodus parallelus, Drepanodus<br />

arcuatus, Drepanoistodus forceps and Drepanoistodus inconstans. Thus<br />

defined, the Subzone of Drepanodus proteus corresponds with the Drepanoistodus<br />

inconstans Zone together with the Triangulodus subtilis/Gothodus<br />

microdentatus Zone of Kopingsklint (see chart II and fig. 15). The latter two<br />

zones are equivalent to the Zone of Plesiomegalaspis armata, defined by<br />

Tjernvik (1956) at Kopingsklint (see figs. 16 and 19).<br />

The Prioniodus elegans Subzone of Sergeeva seems to be characterized by<br />

the total range of Prioniodus elegans emend. herein. Thus defined, this<br />

subzone is correlative with the Prioniodus elegans/Oelandodus elongatus<br />

Zone together with the Stolodus stola Zone and the Protopanderodus<br />

rectus/Oelandodus costatus Zone of section 6 (see chart III and figs. 15 and<br />

19). These zones are equivalent to the lower portion of the Zone of<br />

Plesiomegalaspis planilimbata, defined by Tjernvik (1956) at Aleklinta<br />

(fig. 17 and 19).<br />

Sergeeva's Subzone of Prioniodus evae seems to be characterized by the<br />

concurrence of the ranges of Oepikodus evae emend. herein, Paroistodus<br />

parallelus emend. herein, Stolodus stola emend. LINDSTROM, Protopanderodus<br />

rectus emend. LINDSTROM, Oistodus lanceolatus emend. herein,<br />

Drepanoistodus forceps emend. herein, Scolopodus rex LINDSTROM and<br />

Prioniodus crassulus emend. herein. In the rock-sequence of north-western<br />

Oland only Oistodus lanceolatus and Prioniodus crassulus appear after the<br />

first occurrence of Oepikodus evae (fig. 15). If, however, Sergeeva's Subzone<br />

of Prionoidus evae is considered to be characterized by the total range of
