“…Parrotia persica's pollen grain is not frequently identified because its thin membrane (exine) is often poorly preserved (see photographs of modern and fossil pollen grains of P. persica in: Naud and Suc, 1975;Bińka et al, 2003;Leroy, 2007). However, it has been reliably recorded up to 3.85 Ma at Site 380 (Figs.…”

North and South Anatolia areas are today refuge areas for plants that were previously widespread in the European and Mediterranean regions. Thirteen well-dated Anatolian pollen records spanning the last 23 million years allow for a reconstruction of the history of several plants that have disappeared from this region or are surviving in this refuge area. For example, in this study we show that Cedrus is an ancient element of the Anatolian flora. Tropical elements lived in this area until the early Pliocene. Subtropical elements became extinct in the Middle to Late Pleistocene, except for Glyptostrobus (Taxodiaceae swamp tree) and Carya (Juglandaceae, a warm-temperate tree), which may have persisted until recently in this area. In addition, a comparison of palaeofloras coming from different locations ranging from 36-38°N and 40-42°N latitudinal intervals in the northeastern Mediterranean (including Anatolian coastal regions) with those from Europe and North Africa has been done. This shows that the North and South Anatolia areas appear to have been separate refuges for thermophilous-hygrophilous plants since the early Pliocene (ca. 5 Million years). Today, Anatolia is a plant refuge area for warmtemperate species, which have almost completely (Zelkova) or completely (Pterocarya, Liquidambar, Parrotia persica) disappeared from other European and peri-Mediterranean regions. Taxodiaceae swamp ecosystems (Glyptostrobus) might have recently disappeared from the southern Black Sea shoreline. New pollen data from Anatolia also allowed us in calibrating the timing of floristic extinctions at a continental scale and helped us in clarifying the reasons of the different floral extinctions and dynamics (breaking up and shifting) in the refuge areas. Thanks to global warming there is a potential for the survival and expansion of thermophilous species (Pterocarya fraxinifolia, Zelkova abelica, Liquidambar orientalis) in this area.

“…The case of Parrotia is also interesting. Its pollen morphology, not well known among palynologists due of its poor frequency, is illustrated in Leroy (2007) and Binka et al (2003). In the Early Pleistocene samples, its occurrence is regular and sometimes reaches significant percentages (up to 9% in Bòbila Ordis; Leroy, 2008).…”

“…It is not recorded in Middle Pleistocene sites. However, Parrotia is known in Northern Europe up to the Holsteinian (Binka et al, 2003); therefore it should also have maintained itself in southern Europe, including Iberia, in favourable locations until that time at least. It is therefore uncertain whether Parrotia disappeared from the Iberian Peninsula during the Early Pleistocene or later, and why.…”

Progress in palynology of the Gelasian–Calabrian Stages in Europe: Ten messages

Europe has at present the most extensive network of palynological sites covering the Late Pliocene and the Early Pleistocene or roughly the Gelasian-Calabrian Stages. This paper covers ten points of recent progress in the palynology of this time period: 1) the contribution of palynology to truly global stratigraphy, 2) the existence and steps of vegetation succession after a glacial period, 3) the causes for the disappearance from Europe of some taxa, 4) the location and the types of vegetation refugia, 5) the causes of the low arboreal pollen representation in glacial times, 6) the extent of extreme glacial conditions, 7) the input of long marine records to short terrestrial ones, 8-9) cyclopalynostratigraphy for wiggle matching dating and duration estimations and, finally, 10) short glacial periods and long interglacial ones in an obliquity-forced climate. RésuméL"Europe a pour l"instant le réseau le plus étendu de sites palynologiques couvrant le Pliocène et le Pléistocène Ancien ou bien encore les étages Gélasien-Calabrien. Cette publication présente en 10 points des progrès récents de la palynologie pour cette période : 1) la contribution de la palynologie à une stratigraphie vraiment globale, 2) l"existence même et les étapes des successions de la végétation après une période glaciaire, 3) les causes de la disparition en Europe de quelques taxons, 4) la localisation et les types de refuges de la végétation, 5) les causes de la faible représentation du pollen d"arbres, 6) l"étendue des conditions glaciaires extrêmes, 7) l"influence des longs enregistrements marins sur les enregistrements terrestres courts, 8-9) la cyclopalynostratigraphie utilisée pour la datation par appariement des ondulations des courbes et pour l"estimation des durées, et finalement en 10) les périodes glaciaires courtes et interglaciaires longues sous un climat forcé par l"obliquité.Keywords: Palynology; Vegetation; Europe; Lakes; Pliocene; Pleistocene; Gelasian; Calabrian Mots clés : Palynologie ; Végétation ; Europe ; Lacs ; Pliocène ; Pléistocène ; Gélasien ; Calabrien European Late Pliocene-Early Pleistocene (2.58 to 0.78 Ma), roughly equivalent to the Gelasian and Calabrian Stages (GCS, 2.58 to 0.99 Ma), palynological sequences are a rich source of palaeoenvironmental information (Figs. 1 and 2). The focal point of sites of that age was located in western central Europe in the 1950s and 1960s and it progressively moved to the south of Europe after the 1980s. The interpretation of palynological records evolved during that half century of research. Two main factors have played a part: a change of mindset especially under the push of multiproxy high-resolution investigations usually applied to the last glacial-interglacial period and progress in marine drilling technology providing first-quality sequences covering the last million years continuously.The Gelasian and the Calabrian Stages (Figs. 1 and 2) are examined together because they have more in common with each other than with the preceding stage, the Piacenzian, and the...
