The high content of pteridophytes spores is characteristic for this assemblage. The further characters are in decrease of abundance-tricolpate pollen, Ginkgocycadophytus, pollen of Taxodiaceae, Cupressaceae and Taxaceae (TCT), bisaccate pollen of Pinaceae, and triporate pollen. The bone-bearing burials of Wulaga dinosaur site formed under conditions of vast swampy river valley covered by ferns and taxodialeans. Tricolpate pollen, produced by plants, close to those of Platanaceae, Fagaceae, Betulaceae, and Juglandaceae, counts in favor of valley river open canopy forests.展开更多

More than 40 species, mainly the Late Paleogene plant community in Gondwana and belonging to Weddellian biogeographic Province, were encountered within the volcano sedimentary rocks of the Upper Point Hennequin Group. The index member is the genus Nothofagidites . The occurrence of N. cf. saraensis and N. cf. flemingii and the absence of Proteacidites spp. indicates that the sporopollen bearing rocks is of Oligocene age, which were deposited in a limnetic zone near medium lower mountains environment with warm and humid climate.展开更多

Wang’s report, the Upper Eocene in most part of Guangxi is represented by Dongjun and Nadu Formations, with its type section lying around Nadu area of Bose Basin. Palynoflora from the Tertiary sediments in Ningming, Changdun and Shangsi of southwest Guangxi indicates the Upper Eocene features, while the sediments are also comparable with Nadu Formation of the Bose Basin in lithological character. The present note concerns the pollen result from the sections of the above-mentioned展开更多
