In the present paper a new miospore genus Misrapollenites found in the coals of Lower Barakar Stage has been described. It is a pollen grain monosaccate in organization and circular, subcircular to bilaterally oval in shape. Central body is usually well defined and oval to circular in shape. Proximally the body exine does not bear any germinal mark or any kind of grooves or striations.
