摩尔多瓦位于东特提斯地区内，海相，陆相Sarmatian期沉积都很发育，根据软体动物和有孔虫化石，当地Sarmatian期沉积被分为三段，最后从摩尔多瓦各地37口井下和露头700块样品获得的孢粉结果支持Sarmatian期三分，这些孢粉化石资料说明区域性植被响应气候演变，海进，海退等所发生的变化，含有亚热带种类的山毛阔叶林统池了早Sarmatian期，有时暗针叶林增加，在海退期的晚Sarmatian期，含有喜盐植物（Chenopodiaceae,Amaranthus,Artemisia)的草本类增加。已有的资料显示了在东特提斯地区Sarmatian期植被的周期性变化，伴随着亚热带植物不断减少和禾草类不断增加，说明当时气候在朝年均温逐渐降低，干旱化增加，更加大陆性方向变化。

The territory of Moldova lies within the Eastern Paratethys. The continental and marine Sarmatian sediments are wide spread. Based on mollusc and foraminifera fossils three-members of the Sarmatian is locally adopted. The recently obtained palynological spectra of 700 samples from 37 wells and outcrops in various parts of Moldova support the three-member division of the Sarmatian. These fossil data indicate the changes in regional vegetation in response to climate variations and marine transgressions and regressions. The broad-leaved Fagacean-type forests with subtropical species predominated the Early Sarmatian. Sometimes the quota of dark-coniferous species increased. During the regressive Late Sarmatian, abundance of herbs with halophylous species (Chenopodiaceae, Amaranthus, Artemisia) increased. The obtained data show a cyclic evolution of vegetation in Eastern Paratethys during the Sarmatian time with a steady decrease in diversity of subtropical flora and increase of grasses. This suggests a climate change toward a lower average annual temperature, a higher aridity, and more pronounced continental character.
