A Miocene palynoflora preserved by karstic subsidence in Anglesey and the origin of the Menaian Surface
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 April 2017
Abstract
A fossil flora of Miocene age has been preserved by karstic agencies in a solution subsidence complex developed in a large exotic block of limestone, part of the Gwna Group mélange (?Cambrian), at Trwyn y Parc, Cemaes Bay, Anglesey. The flora suggests that the Menaian Surface and the Snowdonian Mountain block were already well established landscape features by the end of the Miocene. The wider geomorphological implications of the find are briefly discussed.
