Abstract

Palynomorphs from seven soil sediment samples obtained along a transect of a savanna – like area located next to the bay of Caxiuanã, state of Pará, Brazil, were described and illustrated in 139 light micrographs. The taxa comprise Algae, spores of Fungi, Bryophyta, Pteridophyta and pollen grains of Angiosperms. Data of palynomorph places of deposition and Angiosperms habitus and ecological ranges were presented.
