Abstract Forty Permian conodont biozones are summarized and 35 additional regional zones are correlated. The Lower Permian is largely zoned on the basis of partial range lineage interval zones of species of Streptognathodus , Sweetognathus , Neostreptognathodus and Mesogondolella . The Middle and Upper Permian are zoned, respectively, on the basis of partial range lineage interval zones of species of Jinogondolella and Clarkina . The ranges of all key taxa to develop this zonation are depicted in relation to the geochronological ages of Permian stages. The lowest Permian succession has been astronomically tuned with 400 kyr cyclothems linked to interpolated ages in the Uralian succession.
