We have investigated ten route sections of the Silurian Kawauchi Formation in detail and re-examined lithostratigraphy based on numerous observations of limestone microfacies. Consequently, the formation is subdivided into the basal, lower, and upper members, the last of which is composed of the limestone and mudstone alternation-dominated part and the limestone breccia-dominated part. Main carbonates of the lower member represent deposits of lagoon facies on the carbonate platform after the subsidence of the arc-island basement. The upper part of the lower member contains small reef-mounds which were constructed by corals, stromatoporoids and red algae and bound by abundant calcimicrobes. The Carbonates from uppermost part of the lower member to lower part of the upper member are characterized by cracking, red to yellow staining, or filling of purple siltstone, most of which suggest an emergency of the carbonate platform. In contrast, the upper member was mainly formed in the marginal to frontal areas of the carbonate platform; limestone and mudstone alternation-dominated part may have been the muddy deposits with frequent carbonate turbidites, and limestone breccia-dominated part is considered as collapsing or debris flow deposits in the platform edge to slope. Similar carbonate successions of the Kawauchi lithostratigraphy are discontinuous to the Silurian section within the marginal areas of South Kitakami Terrane, but are recognized to the Silurian limestone sections in Gion-yama and Yokokura-yama districts of the Kurosegawa Terrane in Southwest Japan. This regional similarity means the deposition on the continuous arc island-shelf as sedimentary and tectonic setting, and also the response to the global sea-level fluctuation in the Middle to Late Silurian times.}, pages = {173--185}, title = {南部北上帯日頃市地区のシルル系層序再訪}, volume = {56}, year = {2022} }
