Fossil woods representing Pometia of Sapindaceae, Mangifera of Anacardiaceae and Lagerstroemia of Lythraceae are described here from the Tertiary beds near Hailakandi, Assam. Petrified woods of Pometia and Lagerstroemia are known for the first time from India. These are of interest with regard to their palaeogeographical distribution.
