Abstract We reconstruct the rise of a segment southern flank Himalaya-Tibet orogen, to south Lhasa terrane, using paleoaltimeter based on paleoenthalpy encoded in fossil leaves from two new assemblages Tibet (Liuqu and Qiabulin) four previously known floras Himalaya foreland basin. U-Pb dating zircons constrains Liuqu flora latest Paleocene (ca. 56 Ma) Qiabulin earliest Miocene (21–19 Ma). The proto-Himalaya grew slowly against high (∼4 km) proto–Tibetan Plateau ∼1 km late ∼2.3 at beginning...
Palms are known to be an important and diverse angiosperm component in the Deccan Intertrappean beds of Central India. However, report fossilized palm stems inhibiting saprophytic fungal remains is empty field paleobotany. Here, we document for first time occurrence a petrified stem collected from latest Maastrichtian (Late Cretaceous)-earliest Danian (early Paleocene) sediments Madhya Pradesh, The anatomical features fossil characterized by presence Corypha-type general pattern (progressive...
Fossils can unveil a long-vanished combination of character states that inform inferences about the timing and patterns diversification modern fungi. By examining well-preserved stacked chained vesicular conidiophores developed in clusters from basal stroma, we describe new taxon fossil Zygosporiaceae with characters unknown among extant taxa on compressed serrated-margined dicot leaf (cf. Fagaceae) recovered Siwalik sediments (Late Miocene; ca. 12-8 Ma) Himachal Pradesh, western Himalaya....
Leaf remains of 4 lauraceous taxa collected from the Siwalik sediments (Middle Miocene to Pliocene) Arunachal Pradesh eastern Himalaya are described in present communication. One fossil leaf, Cinnamomum palaeobejolghota sp. nov., was recovered lower part succession (Dafla Formation; Middle Upper Miocene), while Persea mioparviflora preglaucescens and Lindera neobifaria nov. were middle (Subansiri sub-Himalaya. The geographic distribution fossils their modern counterparts is discussed on that...
Ten palm leaf impressions are documented from the latest Maastrichtian (late Cretaceous) to early Danian (earliest Paleocene) sediments (K-Pg, c. 66-64 Ma) of Mandla Lobe Deccan Inter-trappean Beds, Madhya Pradesh, central India. The palmate shape along with a definite well-preserved costa support their placement in subfamily Coryphoideae family Arecaceae. We place all recovered specimens fossil genus Sabalites, report seven species coryphoid palms and describe two new namely, Sabalities...
Abstract Plant‐insect interactions play a crucial role in shaping terrestrial ecosystems, influencing abundance and distribution of plant species. In the present study, we investigated leaf‐mining patterns on fossil leaves from Pliocene strata Mahuadanr Valley, Jharkhand, eastern India, deposited under seasonal tropical climate, reported complex between plants insects. We identified 11 distinct mining morphotypes. These morphotypes were mainly found Dipterocarpaceae, Fabaceae, Lauraceae,...
