Two distinct palynological biostratigraphic units are recognised in lignitic and carbonaceous sediments from north of Hamilton, Victoria. The younger assemblage, characterised by a very low frequency of Nothofagus spp. and high podocarpaceous frequency, is of Pliocene age and equivalent to the Grange Burn Coquina. The older assemblage with abundant Nothofagus spp. probably pre-dates the deposition of the Bochara Limestone. An even younger microflora is described from the basalt - tuff contact on Grange Burn.
