Studies in the Talchir Flora of India - 3. Stellapollenites: A new monosaccate pollen genus from the South Rewa Gondwana Basin

Abstract

A new monosaccate pollen genus, viz. Stellapolienites is described from the Talchir Stage of the South Rewa Gondwana basin. The saccus is attached sub-equatorially on both faces of the body and the triangular attachment zones on the two faces are mutually reversed. A new series, viz. Amphisacciti is proposed to include stellapollenites and other pollen genera with a brief comment on their organizational trends.
