The Raohe area of Heilongjiang Province, Northeast China belongs to the Nadanhada Terrane, which was in low latitudes of Panthalassa during the Triassic. The composition of the Late Triassic conodont fauna, derived from limestone lenses interpreted to formed on seamounts, provides important new information on the pelagic biota in this ocean. New conodont samples collected from sections at Minzhu, Minnan and Chigangbei sections belong to three Norian conodont zones. In ascending order, they are:
