In addition to the CLP loess-paleosol sequence，other Quaternary continental strata in China，including fluvio-lacustrine and cave/fissure sedimentary sequences，have been well dated using magnetic stratigraphy.Establishing temporal control for the strata bearing Yuanmou Man and Peking Man by way of magnetic stratigraphy were key developments in early studies（Li et al.，1976；Liu et al.，1977）.With the improved understanding of paleomagnetic remanence acquisition processes and the increasing use of SQUID magnetometers since the 1980s，the chronologies of a variety of sedimentary strata and associated faunas have been well constrained（Figures 2 and 3，Tables 1 and 2）.The purpose of the present contribution is to review recent developments provided mainly by magnetostratigraphic investigations of continental Quaternary strata and associated faunas，and then to propose an integrative chronostratigraphic framework and a stratigraphic correlation scheme for Quaternary continental strata in China（Figures 1–3）.In addition，we propose several critical issues in Chinese Quaternary chronostratigraphy which are currently unresolved.However，certain sedimentary units lacking robust age constraints（e.g.the Xigeda Formation in southwestern China and the Xiyu Formation in northwestern China）are not discussed here.
