All samples were made into thin sections and were examined for shell preservation under the petrographic and cathodoluminescence(CL) microscopes. Two samples were selected to analyze REEs contents for further evaluation of shell preservation due to the blue light observed under CL. The REEs results show that the blue light might be related to hydrothermal diagenesis. Three hundred and twenty-one isotopic analyses were performed.Average stable carbon and oxygen isotope of nonluminescent shells(N=63) are 5.0±2.0‰ and -4.5±0.7‰, respectively. Mean δ18O value is-6.6±1.4‰ (N=26) for luminescent shells and is -6.4±1.1‰ (N=30) for luminescent matrix. Therefore, average nonluminescent shell δ18O value is greater than those of luminescent shells and matrix indicating that the nonluminescent shells were not altered by diagenesis. IV Except for Kungurian (δ13C = 1.7±0.3‰), carbon isotope values of South China are between 2.9 and 7.5‰, greater than those of contemporary records from other regions. More positive values in carbon isotope records may indicate higher productivity in South China during Late Permian. Average oxygen isotope values are -4.4±0.3 ‰ (N=6) for late Carboniferous, -4.5±0.2‰ (N=4) for Kungurian, -4.2±0.5‰ (N=40) for Roadian to Capitanian , -4.2±0.5‰ (N=2) for Wuchiapingian, and -4.6±0.1‰ (N=11) for Changhsingian. Average oxygen isotope values are less than those of mid-continent and Ural in Permian. Assuming the seawater oxygen isotope was -1‰, the calculated average sea surface temperature was 32.5±0.6°C for Late Permian. This warm sea surface temperature of South China indicating that modern Western Pacific Warm Pool sea surface temperature pattern was also existed in Late Permian. Based on the oxygen isotope record within in single shells, seasonal temperature fluctuations in South China were significant (4.6~6.1°C) for Roadian to Capitanian but insignificant (0.9°C) in South China for Changhsingian.晚古生代穩定碳氧同位素腕足動物中國湖北省Paleozoicstable carbon and oxygen isotopebrachiopodsHubei
