Ten plant types from Goraia (Talchir beds) in the South Rewa Gondwana basin have been described. Besides Noeggeralhiopsis hislopi, Gangamopleris cyclopleroides and some of its varieties, four types are new to the Talchir beds. They are Cordaicarpus furcala, Samaropsis goraiensis, Paranocladus (?) indica and Arberia umbellata. The occurrence of the conifer Paranocladus (?), which is hitherto known only from Brazil, is reported for the first time from India.
