In order to study the distributions of the biomarker of the continental source rocks in the Sichuan Basin, 71 source rock samples were collected from the Upper Triassic-Lower Jurassic strata in different regions. The n-alkanes, isoprenoids, terpane, sterane, sesquiterpenes, caranes and aromatics in the extracts were analyzed in detail. GC-MS analysis has been conducted to analyze the biomarker of the continental source rocks. The results of GC-MS analysis indicate that the Upper Triassic source rocks are high in the content of extended tricyclic terpanes, pristane, phytane, gammacerane, C 28  regular sterane and carotene. However, they are low in content of rearranged compounds. The ratio of Pr/Ph is less than 1, with the characteristics of tricyclic terpane C 21  &gt; C 23 . The Lower Jurassic source rocks are extremely low in content (even zero) of extended tricyclic terpanes, pristane, phytane, gammacerane, C 28  regular sterane and carotene, and high in content of rearranged compounds. The ratio of Pr/Ph is more than 1, with tricyclic terpane C 21  &gt; C 23 . These characteristics are still preserved after maturation. Moreover, during the sedimentation of the source rocks of T 3 x 2 –T 3 x 3  members, the supply of continental plants was low (TAR   C 29 , 1-MP/9-MP   C 29 , 1-MP/9-MP &lt; 1), being quite different from that of J 1 l member. Through analysis of the difference in biomarkers, it is indicated that the sedimentary environment had changed from anoxic and brackish water during the Late Triassic to oxygen-rich and freshwater during the Early Jurassic in the Sichuan Basin. During this process, the types of organic matters had changed for several times.
