Abstract

A small miofloral assemblage is reported from the beds of the Maitur Formation exposed on the northern bank of the Damodar River near the village Junut, Raniganj Coalfield, West Bengal. Disaccate pollen constitute about 70 per cent of the assemblage. Triletes are only about 10 per cent, while the monosaccates are 15 per cent of the total, qualitatively and quantitatively, the assemblage is akin to the other Lower Triassic palynological assemblages from India.
