Abstract

A new genus Cheirophyllum is made for some lobed leaves which were described earlier by Feistmantel (1886) under the name Noeggerathiopsis lacerata and by Maithy (1965) as Palmatophyllites lacerata (Feistmantel) comb. novo as well as some newly collected identical duplicates from the Karharbari Stage of the Giridih Coalfield. The cuticles of C. lacerata (Feistmantel) comb. nov. are also described. It is pointed out that the name Palmatophyllites lacerata is illegitimate.
