Surfaces of sections are a classical tool in the study of 3-dimensional dynamical systems. Their use goes back to the work of Poincar´ and Birkhoff. e In the present paper we give a natural generalization of this concept by constructing a system of transversal sections in the complement of finitely many distinguished periodic solutions. Such a system is established for nondegenerate Reeb flows on the tight 3-sphere by means of pseudoholomorphic curves.
