The Middle Triassic Panxian Fauna is a physical marker and representative record of the rapid recovery of the Triassic marine ecosystem following the Early Triassic stagnant stage after the end-Permian mass extinction. Ten marine reptile taxa have been found from the 1.82-2.10 m.thick fossiliferous level in the Upepr member of the Guanling Formation, which can be subdivided into three marine reptile beds trhough the analysis on the stratigraphical distribution of fossil reptiles.

Abstract
The Middle Triassic Panxian Fauna is a physical marker and representative record of the rapid recovery of the Triassic marine ecosystem following the Early Triassic stagnant stage after the end-Permian mass extinction. Ten marine reptile taxa have been found from the 1.82-2.10 m.thick fossiliferous level in the Upepr member of the Guanling Formation, which can be subdivided into three marine reptile beds trhough the analysis on the stratigraphical distribution of fossil reptiles.
