Abstract

Amarjolia dactylota (Boase) comb. Nov. comprises spirally arranged bracts enclosing a whorl of Microsporophylls and the female receptacle with immature seminiferous and interseminal scales. Microsporophylls in gross features resemble the microsporophylls of Weltricha santalensis (Sitholey & Bose) Bose described by Sitholey and Bose (1971). Flowering being protandrous, the details of seminiferous and interseminal scales are not known.
