Abstract
Fossil plants collected in the Northern part of Williams Point (Living ston Island, South Shetland Islands, Antarctica) have revealed two dif ferent floras. The systematic composition indicates an Upper Triassic age. The autochthony of plants is asserted and makes it necessary to r evise the paleogeography of this region at the end of the Trias.
