The remains of fossil plants from bering island (Komandor islands)

摘要

A poor assemblage of fossil coniferous and flowering plants of the Middle Eocene from volcanoclastic sedimentary rocks is described. Its taxonomic closeness is discovered with adjacent floras of moderate appearance and coniferous-broadleaved composition of Kamchatka. This does not confirm an opinion shared by some authors about belonging of plants to thermophilic flora of the paleogene climatic optimum.
