Popis: Most paleoecological investigations use different biotic or abiotic proxies for climate and environmental reconstructions. Although fossil pollen is one of the most used biological proxies, Non-Pollen Palynomorphs (NPPs), especially fungal spores and tissues, have an underestimated potential to infer local and regional climate dynamics. This dataset describes the most common Non-pollen palynomorphs of fungal origin from mangrove sediments in the Caribbean Sea, southeastern Mexico. A detailed descriptive Atlas is presented, with light micrographs taken from routine pollen slides in paleoecological reconstructions. Microphotographs were included to facilitate their identification. A total of 59 spores, 4 tissues, 2 hyphae, and 11 unidentified fungal palynomorphs are described.
