A study of the late early Miocene (Ramblian?–lower Aragonian) phytocoenosis of the La Rinconada mine (Ribesalbes‐Alcora Basin, Province of Castellón, eastern Spain) led to the identification of 19 plant species showing mainly xeromorphic and/or sclerophyllous characteristics (three conifers and 16 dicotyledonous angiosperms). These plants mainly reflect the zonal vegetation that developed beyond the influence of the palaeolake known to have existed in the area. This vegetation was characterized by the presence of conifers, Pinus hepios and Juniperus section Sabina, associated with members of Anacardiaceae, Celastraceae, Fabaceae and Myricaceae, taxa that would have formed an evergreen forest with a shrubby component. These communities also included species adapted to life in damper environments, including Mahonia bilinica, Sophora assimilis, aff. Ormosia sp., ‘Sapindus’ falcifolius and aff. Dombeyopsis lobata. New information regarding the leaf characteristics of Pistacia miocenica and Sophora assimilis is provided. The inferred zonal vegetation indicates the presence of evergreen–deciduous forests adapted to seasonally dry conditions (PFT 9), similar to those described for other parts of the Iberian Peninsula and elsewhere in Europe. The richness and diversity of the La Rinconada mine deposits provide insight into the zonal vegetation of the Ribesalbes‐Alcora Basin, increasing our knowledge of the characteristics and evolution of the vegetation of south‐western Europe during the Miocene. © 2013 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2013, 172, 153–174.

“…Numerical climatic values of the Cumaovası and Kocaçay basins are generally obtained using 10 taxa as was done in Western Eurasia (Utescher et al, 2007), China (Yao et al, 2011), and Bulgaria (Bozukov et al, 2009). Although using taxa numbers in the coexistence approach method is rare, climatic values of these basins are important for palaeoclimatic evolution of Europe and the palaeoclimatic changes in western Anatolia during the late BurdigalianLanghian.…”

“…For the Atlantic side of Eurasia, detailed, quantitative climate records for Cenozoic time-spans were reconstructed based on palaeobotanical records from various, mid-latitudinal regions such as the Central Paratethys (Mosbrugger et al, 2005), Eastern Paratethys (Syabryaj et al, 2007;Bozukov et al, 2009;Ivanov et al, 2011), and Cenozoic North Sea realm (Mosbrugger et al, 2005;Utescher et al, 2009). This last area provided the most comprehensive record, reconstructed based on megafloras from two continental to marginal marine Cenozoic basins, the Lower Rhine Basin and the Weisselster Basin, both located in Northern Germany, which together document Cenozoic climate history throughout the past 45 Ma.…”
