Dasycladacean Algae from Paleocene to Oligocene Rocks of Baratang Island, Andaman, India
Subscribe/Renew Journal
The calcareous coarse-grained sandstones occurring both in the Baratang Group (Lower Paleocene to Lower Eocene) and the Port Blair Group (Middle Eocene to Oligocene) yielded a rich dasycladacean algal flora comprising four species namely: Broeckella baratangensis sp. nov., Dissocladella deserta Elliott, Neomeris plagnensis Dellofre and Trinocladus indicus sp. nov. They have Tethyan affinities and indicate shallow marine tropical water having a maximum depth of about 5-6 m below low tide level.
