%X a diverse conodont fauna from the machari formation in the yeongweol area of gangweon (formerly kangweon) province, korea, includes protoconodonts, paraconodonts, and euconodonts. protoconodonts (assigned to phylum chaetognatha leuckart and to order protoconodontida landing) include gapparodus abaimova, gumella m¨šller and hinz, hertzina m¨šller, and phakelodus miller. paraconodonts (assigned to phylum chordata bateson, to superclass conodonta pander, and to class paraconodontida m¨šller) include species of furnishina m¨šller, muellerodus miller, proacodus m¨šller, proacontiodus an, prooneotodus m¨šller and nogami, prosagittodontus m¨šller and nogami, and westergaardodina m¨šller. euconodonts (assigned to phylum chordata, to superclass conodonta pander, and to class conodonti branson) include species of cambrooistodus miller, coelocerodontus ethington, granatodontus chen and gong, proconodontus miller, and teridontus miller. upper middle cambrian occurrences of coelocerodontus and granatodontus are some of the oldest occurrences of euconodonts. seventeen species referable to eight genera are reported for the first time from the middle to upper cambrian of korea. these include the protoconodonts gapparodus n. sp. a and gumella cuneata m¨šller and hinz and the paraconodonts furnishina bicarinata m¨šller, f. curvata m¨šller and hinz, f. gossmannae m¨šller and hinz, f. ovata m¨šller and hinz, f. pernica an, f. polonica szaniawski, f. tortilis (m¨šller), f. vasmerae m¨šller and hinz, muellerodus? erectus (xiang in an et al.), prosagittodontus minimus m¨šller and hinz, westergaardodina nogamii m¨šller and hinz, and w. quadrata an. euconodonts recovered for the first time from the machari formation include coelocerodontus bicostatus van wamel, granatodontus ani (wang), and g. hwajeolensis (lee and lee). these taxa are illustrated and correlated herein with the equivalent local and global trilobite and conodont zonal schemes.
