Abstract
During the palaeobotanical investigation of the Spišská kotlina Basin and the neighbouring areas, seeds ofPinus cembra L. were found in limonitized concretions and peat sediment of the Sivárňa mire situated near the village of Vyšné Ružbachy (east of the High Tatra). The presence of this tree species was also confirmed by pollen analysis. It is the first find of fossil seeds dating from the Late glacial in Czechoslovakia.
