Abstract
In the course of the palynological analysis of samples taken from both vertical and horizontal sections across a series of Neogene basins around the Mecsek Mountains, 424 species of 185 genera were described. Palynological data made it possible to reconstruct the succession of subtropical vegetation patterns in relation to geological time units from the Helvetian to the Pannonian. The palaeoclimatological results deduced from each vegetation pattern suggest a change from the warm subtropical climate to a cold subtropical one, a change influenced by local and microclimatic factors. Besides permitting other conclusions to be drawn, the vegetation patterns also support the established stratigraphic subdivision.
