    Abstract

    The interpretation of the Eemian pollen diagrams from lake deposits is hampered by the insufficient information about the differentiation of the regional vegetation in plant associations. Pollen diagrams from very small hollows or soils record successions of single, communities. At Egernsund a succession of Betula-Pinus-Ulmus, Fraxinus, Corylus, Tilia , and Tilia-Carpinus phases is recorded. Tilia forest is lacking further northward in Denmark. A picture of the Eemian vegetational differenti ation and landscape development in Denmark is obtained by comparison with other sites.
