Abstract

The palynoflora recovered from the sediments of Talchir Formation of Mura Kuppa area in Betul Coalfield, Satpura Basin is rich in Plicatipollenites, followed by Parasaccites and Virkkipollenites, Potonieisporites and Rugasaccites occur consistently but in low percentages. This palynoflora is closely comparable with the known older palynofloras of the Talchir Formation of India.
