Objective
The Mesozoic strata in eastern Liaoning and southern Jilin are relatively well developed.Liu et al.(1963)studied Lycoptera in North China,and they mentioned the fossils of south Jilin,but they were not included in the study due to the lack of specimens and poor preservation.Ma and Sun(1988)studied fish fossils from the Sankeyushu section in Tonghua,Jilin,and laid the foundation for the study of fish fossils in this area.Later,paleontologists came to eastern Liaoning and southern Jilin to investigate fish fossils;Su(1992)collected and studied fish fossils in the Suzihe Basin(Nanzamu,Xinmin Manchu Autonomous County)in eastern Liaoning.The research level in eastern Liaoning and southern Jilin is also very low,but the composition of fossil faunas is different,and they are very important for fish evolution and zoogeographic significance.We have carried out fossil fish surveys in eastern Liaoning and discovered fossils of the freshwater fish Huashia in the Xiaowenzhigou area.
