Abstract
The successful solution of many aspects of palaeofloristic reconstruction is traditionally based on materials from palynomorphological and palaeopalynological studies. This paper summarizes an analysis of the palynofloral species composition from Allerød–Holocene deposits in 21 sections of the modern Lviv region. The analytical processing and generalization of the obtained palaeofloristic data enabled the identification of pollen and spores from 21 rare plant species in the fossil palynoflora. The species vary in conservation status within the extant flora. Currently, 15 of them occur in the plain part of the Lviv region. The remaining 6 are present only in the high mountains of the Ukrainian Eastern Carpathians.
