8 Three papers from the Jurassic-Cretaceous localities in Gujarat, viz., Tarnetar, Kurbi and Himmatnagar respectively, have been finalized and sent to Press. Studies on the plant fossils from Habur and Gardeshwar were continued. Some shale samples from Walkamata, Kutch were macerated in bulk. Fragmentary leaves and pieces of cuticle of Otozamiles, Ptilophyllum. conifer twigs and a few seeds and megaspores have been sorted out. Fossil woods pieces coliecteJ from Bela Island, Kutch and the Lathi Formation of Rajasthan are under study. A study on the plant fossils from Pranhita-Godavari basin and the East Coast is also under progress. Sections of about 80 petrified \\ood pieces from Kadamba block near Gundepalle and Yamonpalle villages have been examined. They probably belong to Altsembrioxylon Podocarpoxylon. 3.2. Sporae dispersae and palyno9traugraphy 3.2.1. Triassic A paper on the Vpper Tria~sic pollen and :spores from Janar Nala Section, near Bijouri, Shahdol District, Madhya Pradesh has been finalized and sent for publication. A palynological comparison shows that the J~nar r\ala assemblage has an affinity with the miofiora from the middle p.lrt of the Mungaroo beds, Carnarvon Basin, Australia. 3.2.2. Jurassic-Cretaceous ,",,'orkon the clinoflagellate cysts from the ~:[orand River section near Morghat is being revi'5ed. A manuscript on the Dharesi miospore assemblage has almost been completed. The assemblage is qualitatively
9 rich in trilete miospore genera but quantitatively by aletc and saccate pollen grains. dominated More palynological samples from Gangapur beds were processed and scanned. Identification of the taxa up to specific level has almost been accomplished. A study of the genus Aqui/apolleniles and other spores and pollen grains from Mattur, Vridhaehalam District, Tamil Nadu bas been completed. 3.2.3. Work on lhe palynostratigraphy of carbonaceous shales from Kotri, Xarsinghpur District, M. P. and palynostratigl'aphical studies of carbonaceous shales from Morghat section exposed on ~Iorand River in Hoshangabad District, Madhya Pradesh have been completed. 4. C!:NOZOIC 4.1. Morphological aDd anatomical studies 4.1.1. Deccan IntertrapP,al! Flora A large number of well-preserved fossil woods from a new fossiliferous locality near Shahpura in )'Iandla District, Madhya Pradesh were tentatively assigned to the families Sterculiaceae, Burseraceae, Anacardiaceae, Rhamnaceac, Lauraceac, Celastraceae and Palmae. One of the palm woods shows close resemblance with Phoenix. \Vork on I\awargaon fossil dicot woods belongirg to EZlodia, Amoora and SQnnera!ia was completed and two species of palm woods were also described. One of the species resembles closely the modern wood of Liuirtona. Maceration of calc.ueous clay samples from the Inter· trappean bed, of Rajahmundry ha, yielded a rich assemblage of charophytic remains.
