Abstract
Pollen, diatoms and foraminifera from a raised marine sediment of the Ría de Ares (A Coruña, Spain) area produced comparable paleoenvironmental interpretations. It is an organic formation with peat associated with numerous vegetal rests. The micropaleontological analysis of this level and the absolute dating, place its formation in the Subboreal period. The paleoecological reading obtained from a micropaleontological study allows us to reconstitute two basic paleoenvironments: a vegetal continental environment and an environment with salty conditions, as a consequence of the sea level increase.
