A paraconformity is a type of unconformity in which the sedimentary layers above and below the unconformity are parallel, but there is no obvious erosional break between them. A break in sedimentation is indicated, for example, by fossil evidence. It is also called nondepositional unconformity or pseudoconformity.<ref name="Catuneanu">{{cite book | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=8j-6UTXHmDkC&pg=PA15 | title=Principles of Sequence Stratigraphy | publisher=Elsevier | author=Catuneanu O. | year=2006 | pages=15 | isbn=9780080473987}}</ref><ref>{{cite book | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=irgrAQAAMAAJ&q=pseudoconformity | title=Encyclopedia of Science and Technology: An International Reference Work, Volume 14 | publisher=McGraw-Hill | year=1966 | pages=192}}</ref> Short paraconformities are called [[diastem]]s.{{sfn|Boggs|2006|p=401}}
