Abstract
The macro and micro fossil flora of Soma coal area (West Anatolia) embodying important lignite deposits of Turkey; has been investigated in this study in all 72 family, genus or species level have been determined from the area. The most distributed species are Glyptostrobus europaeus (Brong.) Unger, Pinus (cf. P. taedaformis Heer) and Quercus.These specimens point out that this flora belongs to Middle Miocenes age. It also depicts the presence of a subtropical hot and wet climatic conditions. The most probable vegetation could have been a marshy forest cover of G. europaeus alongside the lake with a mixed forest of Pinus-Quercus at its margin.
