Fine-grained micaceous carbonaceous shales of Ganjra nalla bed (23.22: 81.4E.) are overcrowded with carbonized impressions of Glossopteris indica, G. browniana, G. decipiens, Gangamopteris cyclopteroides, Noeggerathiopsis hislopi, some stems and several species of Samaropsis. A bryophytic sporogonium-like body has also been found. Description of Samaropsis and bryophytic sporogonium-like body has been published separately.
