Abstract

Fifty-five miospores (including 7 new species and 3 new combinations) that range from Emsian to late Frasnian are identified, and 48 illustrated from 4 boreholes in the Ghadamis Basin. Their stratigraphic distribution is given and correlations made with established chronostratigraphic schemes. The Old Red Sandstone Continent miospore zonation can obviously be applied to this part of the Gondwanaland. The similarity of the miospore assemblages in both continents since at least the Emsian, suggests a close proximity of these continents during the middle and Upper Devonian.
