Abstract

Some microfossils of uncertain affinities have been described from the Barakar Stage of Lower Gondwanas India. It has been found suitable to include these microfossils under the group "Acritarcha ". A total of 9 genera and 15 species have been described out of which one genus and 7 species are new. A new subgroup Reticulosphaeromorphitae has been instituted to accommodate alete microfossils with reticulum on both faces.
