Abstract

Recent advances in revealing and reconstructing Cretaceous paleofloristic changes in Japan in relation to the first appearance and further diversification of Angiosperms are summarized. Palynological analyses covering major Early Cretaceous fossil-bearing sites in Japan are providing data that make possible to illustrate overall patterns of floristic changes during the key period. The present results show patterns well comparable to those reported in the Potomac Group of North America as well as in Eastern Asia, though the latter is less known in detail yet.
