Abstract

Two palynoassemblages have been recorded from the Permian Sequence of Mahadoli area (Borehole WM-14), Wardha Valley Coalfield, Maharashtra. The older palynoassemblage A is Scheuringipollenites dominant while the younger palynoassemblage B is characterized by Parasaccites-Densipollenites along with striate bisaccates, Falcisporites and Satsangisaccites. Correlation with palynoassemblages of other coaliferous basins of India and the age of subsurface sediments have been discussed.
