Abstract Thirty-three plant microfossil assemblages, many of which are poorly preserved, have been recovered from the Victoria Group (upper Beacon Supergroup) of south Victoria Land, Antarctica. Three broad assemblage zones, informally designated the Parasaccites zone (oldest), the Protohaploxypinus zone, and the Alisporites zone, are recognisedin the palynological succession. The zones are separated by strata apparently lacking plant microfossils. Parasaccites zone assemblages occur in the Darwin Tillite, in equivalent rocks in the0 Ohio and Wisconsin Ranges, and in shales overlying tillite in the Nilsen Plateau. In terms of the Australian Late Carboniferous and Permian palynological zonal scheme the Parasaccites zone is correlated with upper Stage 2 from Permo-Carboniferous glacial and f1uvioglacial deposits in Australia. The Protohaploxypinus zone from the middle and upper parts of the Glossopteris-bearing Weller Coal Measures resembles the Australian Stage 4 of Early Permian (Artinskian) age. Assembla...
