Abstract
SUMMARY: The vegetational history of the Ipswichian (last) Interglacial in Britain is discussed in terms of the behaviour of the various trees and shrubs, the marked opening of the vegetation in the latter part of the interglacial, and climatic indications given by the plant assemblages. The vegetational history of the correlative Eemian Interglacial of the European mainland is surveyed geographically, with particular reference to the differences between the Continent and Britain, and to the variations in the flora and vegetational history between north‐west Europe, Poland and southern Europe north of the Alps. Special attention is given to the behaviour of Tilia, Taxus, Acer, Picea and Abies.Keywords
