In the SW Sardinia Sulcis-Iglesiente area, the continental late to post-Variscan upper Pennsylvanian, Permian, and Triassic successions are thin, fragmentary, restricted, and scattered (Fig.1). They are rarely superimposed on each other. So, the reconstruction of the sedimentary evolution of the basin as a whole depositional unit is difficult. More detailed stratigraphical-sedimentological analysis and investigations of historically known outcrops, and stratigraphic and thin section analysis of newly found outcrops have allowed the delineation of the history of the late to post-Variscan successions in SW Sardinia.

Abstract
In the SW Sardinia Sulcis-Iglesiente area, the continental late to post-Variscan upper Pennsylvanian, Permian, and Triassic successions are thin, fragmentary, restricted, and scattered (Fig.1). They are rarely superimposed on each other. So, the reconstruction of the sedimentary evolution of the basin as a whole depositional unit is difficult. More detailed stratigraphical-sedimentological analysis and investigations of historically known outcrops, and stratigraphic and thin section analysis of newly found outcrops have allowed the delineation of the history of the late to post-Variscan successions in SW Sardinia.
