Late Paleocene to early Oligocene dinoflagellate cysts of the Zagros basin, west Iran (palaeopalynology and palynostratography)
ALI AKBAR, J.N. & EBRAHIM, G.N.
Abstract
Palynological investigation about 120 samples from 460m thick outcrop section of
late Paleocene to early Oligocene of the Pabdeh Formation, southwestern in Iran yield 55 species
of dinoflagellate results to defined 7 biozone. The quantities of marine palynomorph elements are
indicated of open marine at this time, but a low increase number of spore and pollen in some of
the sample indicated the condition for growth forest are suitable that consequent increase the
harm climate and humidity. The species are common with different latitude and most of them
cosmopolitan. Thermal maturity index measurement indicates oil prone in most of the samples.
