Short summary
A study on Ordovician chitinozoans from South China was conducted. A total of 13 genera and 31 taxa are recognised, including 3 new taxa. Systematic and biostratigraphic remarks are provided for key or disputed taxa to foster our understanding of their classification and biostratigraphy. Furthermore, network analysis is applied for the first time to assess their palaeoenvironmental significance, yielding positive results that highlight a promising new research direction in chitinozoan studies.
