The Iverian Stage is proposed for the concept of a post-Idamean/pre-Payntonian, Late Cambrian, interval in the eastern Georgina Basin, western Queensland. Designation and definition of this stage completes the local stadial biochronological scheme for the Upper Cambrian platform sequences of Australia and conterminous regions. Lithostratigraphic and biostratigraphic material diagnostic of this stage in its type area is integrated and correlated within Australia and globally. In the interests of simplification and clarification, it is suggested that a generic zone concept be overlaid on the current assemblage-zone biostratigraphic scheme for the Iverian Stage.
