The Late Paleozoic Taiyuan Formation in North China is mainly composed of a mixed shallow-marine carbonate and terrigenous clastic deposits. Its basal limestones have been constrained in the late Pennsylvanian to Early Permian. To further constrain the age of the lowest Taiyuan Formation, we obtained two genera and 16 species of conodonts from the bottom limestones of the Taiyuan Formation in two sections in Henan Province, southern North China. The fauna includes
