Palynomorphs obtained from a Panchet Group Exposure in the Sukri River, near Kaima, Auranga Coalfield, Bihar are assignable to 31 species and 22 genera. One genus and five species are newly instituted. On the whole the palynological assemblage is dominated by striate bisaccate pollen. Non-striate bisaccate pollen and the pteridophytic spores share nearly equal percentage. The assemblage is quite similar to the Lower Triassic palynological assemblage reported earlier from the Maitur Formation exposed in the Nonia Nala, near Asansol, West Bengal. The Panchet beds near Kaima are therefore believed to represent the Maitur Formation.
