Un gisement a plantes des formations pliocènes des environs de Rasteau près Vaison-la-Romaine (Vaucluse): Stratigraphie,faune, étude des macrorestes végétaux,palynologie

A new Pliocene deposit with vegetal impressionswas discovered at Rasteau (near Vaison-la-Romaine, Vaucluse. The study of these impression and the sporopollinic analysis from many levels allows us to specify its stratigraphical position in the Pliocene of the Rhone valley. So, the above mentioned levels settled just before the Hautimagne deposit (Neogene zone MN 14 for the mammals). The macroflora and the microflora appear to be related with a temperate warm and wet climate.
