Abstract :The study is carried out in Elbasani town. Paleopalynological data are reported in the present study, obtained in depositions of last XX centuries (last historic period of New Holocene, last Quaternary), from five representative stations of Elbasani town. A series of biological studies have been done in this district during two last decades’ periods. In this work, are given some palynological data about the dispersion of Juglans type part of Juglandaceae family during New Holocene period (last Quaternary) in the area where is positioned Elbasani town. The purpose of this paper is to present the correlation between the depth and dispersion of Juglans type on different periods of time. For this goal we took about 16 sediment samples in each station, every 25 cm from the surface up to 4 m depth, through a dry drilling sonde, 110 mm and 130 mm diameter. Observations, counting and photos of palynomorphs it was carried on using light microscopes, magnification up to 1000x.The age of the sample, is prescribed on the age of archeological objects nearby; the depth 4 m is considered to be about 2000 years. Paleopalynological data for this genre are given for the first time in the literature of our country. The results submit a correlation between the depth and number of spores for this genre.Keywords : Paleopalynological, New Holocene-Quaternary, spore, pollen, Juglans type -Juglandaceae family
