First appeared in a 1982 manuscript by Zhou Kunshu ➂Donglingzi in Zhoukoudian area, Fangshan District, Beijing Municipality ➃For the fluvial facies gravel beds of the Tertiary outside the cave ➄Pliocene ➅Homonymous with Donglingzi Speleothem; Donglingzi Speleothem is the cave deposits, the former belongs to Pleistocene, the later belongs to Pliocene.

In view of the above-mentioned facts that come from an unpublished manuscript, we may refuse to take them into account. But in 1991, Beijing Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources in its “Regional Geology of Beijing Municipality” accepted and published this table without any explanation or discussion, then the author became the maker of the homonym.
