Abstract

Rich assemblages of the Namurian miospores were recorded in the deposits of the Wałbrzych Formation from the northern part of the Intrasudetic Basin. One hundred twenty five miospore taxa were determined and two miospore zones were distinguished. Deposits from Konradów and Biały Kamien belong to the Stenozonotriletes triangulus-Rotaspora knoxi (TK) Zone, correlated to the middle Namurian A. Deposits from Szczawno Zdrój appeared to be younger, because they represents the Lycospora subtriquetra-Kraeuselisporites ornatus (SO) Zone (late Namurian A).
