Sažetak
Detailed conodont biostratigraphy and litostratigraphy of the Late Permian and Early Triassic beds were studied at the Lukač section is composed of the Bellerophon Formation ("bellerohon limestone member" and "evaporite-dolomite member") and the newly introduced Lukač formation ("transitional beds", "streaky limestone member" and "carbonate-clastic beds member"). The Permian-Triassic boundary interval is represented by "transitional beds" of carbonate facies deposited in shallow restricted marine conditions. The presence of Hindeodus parvus in sample L1 in the "transitional beds" marks the systemic boundary between Permian and Triassic. The studied interval is characterized by a diverse microfauna that contains conodonts, foraminifers, ostracods and gastropods. Six conodont zones have been recognized, in ascending order, the latest Changshingian (uppermost Permian)praeparvus Zone, and Griesbachian (lowermost Triassic) parvus, lobata, staeschei-isarcica, postparvus and anceps zones. This faunal succession represents the first known and the most complete conodont biozonation across the Permian-Triassic interval from the entire Dinaric region. The recognized conodont biozones can be correlated with the biozonation of the Southern Alps and of the GSSP Meishan D section.
