  • In order to evaluate the impact of the End-Permian mass extinction on the taxonomic diversity and functional diversity of benthic communities, this study carried out a successive collection of macrofossils through the Permian-Triassic boundary sequence at the Zhonghe Section, Shuicheng, Guizhou Province, and reconstructed the palaeocommunities. The taxonomic diversity is indicative of the Shannon index, dominance index and evenness index, while the functional diversity includes functional group richness and functional evenness. A total of 1 340 fossil specimens were collected in this study, and they could be assigned to 33 species in 30 genera, and could be grouped to two bivalve zones: the Hunanopecten exilisacme zone in the Changhsingian (Late Permian), and the Pteria ussurica variabilisacme zone in the Early Griesbachian (Early Triassic). Three paleocommunities were identified through cluster analysis: Astartella obliqua-Tethyochonetes quadrata community, Pteria ussurica variabilis-Claraia wangi community and Pteria ussurica variabilis-Unionites canalensis community. The Shannon index decreased, dominance increased, evenness decreased, functional group richness decreased and functional evenness increased, indicating that the End-Permian mass extinction significantly damaged the composition, structure and function of the shallow marine benthic community. Besides, in combination with various paleocommunities from South China, it is found that both the species diversity index and the functional diversity index of the benthic community changed synchronously between shallow and deep marine environments. However, the shallow marine paleocommunities were more affected than their counterparts from deep sea.
