The study is carried out in Elbasani town. Paleopalynological data are
reported in the present study, obtained in depositions of last XX centuries
(last historic period of New Holocene, last Quaternary), from five
representative stations of Elbasani town. A series of biological studies have
been done in this district during two last decades’ periods. In this work, are
given some palynological data about the dispersion of Juglans type part of Juglandaceae family during New Holocene period
(last Quaternary) in the area where is positioned Elbasani town. The purpose of
this paper is to present the correlation between the depth and dispersion of Juglans type on different periods of
time. For this goal we took about 16 sediment samples in each station, every 25
cm from the surface up to 4 m depth, through a dry drilling sonde, 110 mm and
130 mm diameter. Observations, counting and photos of palynomorphs it was
carried on using light microscopes, magnification up to 1000x.The age of the
sample, is prescribed on the age of archeological objects nearby; the depth 4 m
is considered to be about 2000 years. Paleopalynological data for this genre are
given for the first time in the literature of our country. The results submit a
correlation between the depth and number of spores for this genre.
