“…Dettmann & Thomson, 1987, Askin, 1990bCantrill & Poole, 2005). In southern South America terrestrial palynological records are sparse (Papú, 1988a(Papú, , b, 1989Baldoni, 1992;Baldoni & Askin, 1993;Papú, 2002;Povilauskas et al, 2008;Povilauskas, 2010Povilauskas, , 2011Povilauskas, , 2012Povilauskas, , 2013Povilauskas, , 2016Vallati, 2010;Novas et al, 2019), with several geologic units with no information on their spore-pollen content. For this reason, the study of new assemblages is essential for evaluating the evolution of austral floras and will also serve as a basis to better evaluate the magnitude of the drop in plant diversity and abundance throughout the K/Pg boundary (Barreda et al, 2012).…”
