Abstract: | The non-marine Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary ( KPgB) in Jiayin of Heilongjiang was first defined and reported in China by the authors' research team in 2011 . Thereafter the continuous research on the KPgB and its related Late Cretaceous biota in Jiayin has been made by the authors in 2012-2020 . The achievements of the research are mainly reflected as follows:(1) a new drilling borehole with 60 m in depth carried out in the Xiaoheyan of Jiayin in 2016 , supplemented new palynological evidence for the KPgB definition in 2011;( 2 ) some radiometric dating newly made on the strata related to the KPgB in Jiayin and its neighboring Russian area, provided the supplemental evidence for the KPgB definition in Jiayin;( 3 ) many new fossils found by the au-thors, represented by the angiosperms Dalembia and Nelumbo, refresh understanding the Late Cretaceous envi-ronment of Jiayin;and (4) the TEM method is applied in the study of pollen exine ultrastructure of Pseudoin-tegricorpus, Wodehouseia, and Aquilapollenites, promoting the late Maastrichtian ecological study in Jiayin, re-lated to the KPgB. |
