Although only the uppermost few cycles have so far been analysed for pollen, the organic matter curve suggests the sediment pile records approximately 10-14 climatic cycles.
Many of the rainforest taxa represented are now extinct, either from western Victoria (Podocarpus, Symplocos, Quintinia, Rapanea, Myrsine, Phyllocladus, Cunoniaceae, Araucariaceae) or from most or all of Australia (Ilex, Dacrydium, Dacrycarpus, Beauprea, and Tertiary form-taxa related to Microcachrys).
The rapid alternation between rainforest vegetation with characteristically "Tertiary" composition, and more familiar "Quaternary" open forests, is biogeographically important for understanding the nature and timing of the development of the overwhelmingly sclerophyllous mid and late Quaternary vegetation of southeastern Australia.

Beauprea pollen is morphologicallyunique among the Proteaceae in having colpoid apertures and diverse sculpturaltypes.
Pollen of Beauprea species so far investigatedappear to more closely resemble pollen of Persoonioideae than that of otherConospermeae genera.
The fossil record, however, indicates thatBeauprea pollen has sculptural analogues in allProteaceae subfamilies, suggesting that its relationship to the rest of thefamily is complex.

In the Proteaceae, several types of both Proteoideae and Grevilleoideae occur in Campanian rocks, with earlier arrival of ancestral Proteaceae from northern Gondwana (Dettmann, 1989).
The Antarctic Peninsula and New Zealand-southeastern Australia areas were both early Campanian diversification sites for various proteaceaeous groups (Beauprea type, Macadamia type, Gevuina-Hicksbeachia type, Knightia type, Xylomelum type; Dettmann and Jarzen, 1988; Pocknall and Crosbie, 1988; Dettmann, 1989).
Gunnera (Gunneraceae) immigrated southward from northern Gondwana via the Antarctic Peninsula in the Campanian (Jarzen and Dettmann, 1990).

 philip sherburne: Rescued notes: Mexico
Festival director Alain Mongeau speaks of exchange and solidarity at the opening conference, where a hundred or so serious-faced young men and women hang on every word and an excitable, tattooed academic harps on about “capitalismo salvaje” and “la cuestión colonial.” Are we colonizers?
At the protest, Tim Hecker — ambient noise musician, outspoken radical, and conflicted employee of some World Bank subdivision — mugs for a photo behind the shock troops while Crackhaus’ Steve Beauprea records the chanting masses on his minidisc recorder.
Perhaps this is the next logical step after ecotourism: politourism.
