Abstract

Glottolepis rugosa gen. et sp. nov. is based on some tongue shaped scale-leaves collected from Nidpur, Sidhi district, Madhya Pradesh. The cuticle of G. rugosa is very tough and is hypostomatic. Stomata are sparsely distributed and concentrated more towards base.

Fossil woods resembling those of Calophyllum, Shorea, Gluta-Melanorrhoea, Cynometra, AfzeliaIntsia and Terminalia are described here from the Tertiary of Assam and NEFA. They were collected from the beds of Buri-Dihing River near Jaipur and Namsang River at Deomali.
