Abstract

Two miospore assemblages from the South Karanpura Coalfield are for the first time systematically described. Of these, one is from the shale associated with the Argada 'S' seam; and the other is from another shale about 70 feet above the Argada 'S' seam. The present study throws some light on the controversial question whether the basal coal-bearing beds including the Argada 'S ' seam of this area belong to the Karharbaris or the Barakars.
