Abstract
An early Devonian graptolite fauna is described from Lila and Huiku sections in Southwest Yunnan, China. Three graptolite biozones are recognized, which in ascending order are: Monograptus uniformis Biozone, M. hercynicus Biozone and M. falcarius Biozone. Six species are described in this paper: Monograptus uniformis Pribyl, M. aequabilis (Pribyl), M. microdon Richter, M. hercynicus Perner, M. falcarius Koren, and Abiesgraptus sp.
