Abstract: The Precambrian strata are widely distributed in China. In the seventies and eighties of the last century,Chinese scholars systematically studied and described a great number of Late Precambrian stromatolites using stratigraphic and palaeontologic methods, and tried to take them as palaeontologic markers in approaching the subdivision and correlation of the Late Precambrian strata in China. For disclosing the morphogenesis of stromatolites, the chinese stromatolite workers more recently began to approach the models of biofabrics in cherty stromatolites and formation causes of laminae as well as the growth, movement and mat-making courses of microorganisms in stromatolites.
