Abstract

The dispersed spore-pollen genera recovered from the Bhuj exposures near Walkamata are referred to 42 spore-pollen genera and 59 species. Microforaminifera and Hystrichosphaerids recovered from the sediments have been figured. The geological distributions of the species are also tabulated in the present paper.
