Palaeos Paleozoic: Permian: The Guadalupian sub-period (714 words)
The Guadalupian stage is named after the Guadalupe Mountains of New Mexico, U.S.A., where rocks and fossils of this age are known.
These rock strata and fossils were formed during the middle Permian period, and as part of the recent revision of Permian stratigraphy (in order to attain a standard global correlation) the old division of lower and upper Permian has been supplemented, if not replaced, by a newer arrangement.
In this the Guadalupian epoch or sub-period refers to the early part of the Upper or Late Permian (with the Lopingian as the latest Late Permian).
