Abstract
Relatively rich marine palynomorph assemblages consisting mainly of dinocysts, but also of microforaminifers and acritarchs, occur throughout the Apto-Albian sequences in Holes 400A and 402A. Dating was effected by the comparison of dinocyst distributions here with those in S.England and France. Palynomorph distribution indicates that the Apto-Albian in Hole 400A was deposited at a reasonable distance from the landmass and probably not on the continental shelf. In contrast, contemporaneous deposition at Site 402A is considered to be nearshore. The characteristics of oceanic and epicontinental assemblages are discussed. -from Authors
