  Sporomorph EcoGroups data and the relevant plant communities are considered as a possible routine used to draw palaeoecological inferences for their host strata. Occurrence of high abundant and diverse miospores in the Qadir Member (Nayband Formation), from the exploratory well no. 954 (Exploratory Area of Parvadeh 4), south of Tabas, central Iran allows for this method to be used to obtain certain palaeoecological implications. By classifying spores and pollens (sporomorphs) in Sporomorph EcoGroups (SEGs), all six plant ecogroups (including plants adapted to Upland, Lowland, River, Pioneer, Coastal, and Tidally-influenced) were identified in examined material. The high ratio of warmer/cooler sporomorphs and the low ratio of drier/wetter sporomorphs suggests deposition under a moist, ±warm climate during the Late Triassic in south of Tabas. From the investigation of miospore parent plants, it was approved that, in descending order, pteridophyta (44%), cycadophyta (34%), coniferophyta (9%), lycophyta (8%), pteridospermophytes (2%), ginkgophytes (2%) and bryophyta (1%) were surrounded the environment of the studied formation. Notable abundance of fern spores (Kyrtomisporis and Foveogleicheniidites) and cycads pollen (Ovalipollis and Ricciisporites) in the palynofloras studied indicate the predominance of warm to semi-warm climate with high humidity. Paleogeographic position of Iran during the Late Triassic in the southern active margin of Eurasia (Turan Plate) tends to support this palaeoclimate generalization. Manuscript profile
