Abstract

Pomaderris apetala(Rhamnaceae) is likely to be another example of pollen dtspersed across the Tasman Sea from Australia. Fossil occurrences of this pollen type in North-West Nelson, South Island, New Zealand, appear to record a regional extension of Pomaderris, and probably an increase in Eucalyptuswet sclerophyll forest in south-eastern Australia during the early to middle Holocene.
