The top of the Kungurian (the base of the Roadian and the Guadalupian series) is defined as the place in the stratigraphic record where fossils of the species Jinogondolella nanginkensis first appeared.

The base of the Wordian stage is defined as the place in the stratigraphic record where fossils of the species Jinogondolella aserrata first appeared. The global reference profile for this stratigraphic boundary is located at Getaway Ledge in the Guadalupe Mountains of Texas.
