Abstract

 

The plant assemblage includes pteridophytic as well as gymnospermic remains. Amongst the pteridophytes Phlebopteris is common with rare presence of Cladophlebis, whereas, of the gymnosperms Otozamites is frequent with rare occurrence of Pachypteris, Pagiophyllum and Brachyphyllum. The assemblage is somewhat similar to the fossil assemblage of Pariwar Formation, Jaisalmer District. On the basis of plant assemblage an Upper Jurassic age has been suggested for the Samu Hill Formation.
