Abstract :
Study of Late Devonian-Carboniferous (Mississippian-Pennsylvanian) conodonts Anarak section (NE Isfahan), Central Iran, led to identifying 67 conodont species belonging to 18 genera. 22 conodont bio-intervals were separated; 15 biozones belong to Late Devonian and 7 biozones belong to carboniferous (Mississippian-Pennsylvanian) time interval. Based on field observation and sedimentological featurs and charactristics the section, subdivided into 5 lithostratigrafic unit. The Color Alteration Index (CAI) reveals the hydrocarbure potential for the Famennian stage of the studied interval
