Description

The occurrence of Early Triassic radiolarians in black siliceous shale and black chert intercalated in siliceous claystone of the Paleozoic and Mesozoic sedimentary complex in the Kuzu area of the Ashio Terrane is reported in this paper. This radiolarian fauna is characterized by such Spumellarians as Palaeoscenidiidae, Pantanelliidae, and Sponguriidae. The following species are typical representatives in the present fauna, namely; Archaeosemantis venusta Sashida, Parentactinia nakatsugawaensis Sashida, Protopsium sp., Pantanellium (?) virgeum Sashida, Cryptostephanidium longispinosum (Sashida), and Oertlispongus sp. This fauna is correlative with that of the Parentactinia nakatsugawaensis (Pn) Assemblage of Sugiyama (1992) and is assigned to Spathian in age.
