| Abstract |
A comprehensive account of microbiota comprising of algae, fungi and acritarchs are described from the Suket Shales of Ramapura, Madhya Pradesh (Semri Series, Vindhyan System) along with a critical study on the disc-shape impressions orcompressions earlier described under Fernwria Chapman. The study shows that these disc-shape forms, Fermoria are either remains of colonial algae or acritarchs (Tasmanites. Nucellospliaeridium etc.). A comparison of Suket Shale microbiota with the known Pre-cambrian microbiota shows that a Late Pre-cambrian age can be assigned to these beds. |
