Intrabaculitricolporites rugoporosus n. sp.<br />
PI. 29, figs. 16-20.<br />
Diagnosis: Tricolporate pollen <strong>of</strong> broad-ellipsoidal to spherical or subprolate to<br />
spheroidal shape. Three conspicuous colpi are rather deep and extend symmetrically<br />
to the apices where they converge. A cavium is developed in each apocolpium.<br />
Exine two-layered,<br />
1 -1.5 ,urn thick, intrabaculate; ectexine as thich as endexine.<br />
Pores equatorially lengthened (lalongate), a fine punctate ornamentation may occur<br />
around the pores.<br />
Measurements: 17-18 pm in length.<br />
15-18 pm in width.<br />
Width I length ratio: 0.88-1. O.<br />
Holotype: PI. 29, fig. 16; 18 X 17 pm in size; exine two-layered, intrabaculate, 1. 5<br />
pm thick; pores lalongate; width I length ratio: 0.94; no. <strong>of</strong> specimen: Jos 1 - 4<br />
(GN 5324).<br />
Derivation <strong>of</strong> name: rugosus (lat.) = wrinkled; porosus (lat.) = quality <strong>of</strong> being<br />
porous.<br />
Remarks: The new species is similar to Intrabaculitricolporites affinis n. sp., but differs<br />
in its smaller size and intrabaculate exine - structure.<br />
Botanical affinity: Unknown.<br />
