The presence of Thalassinoides above the jasper conglomerate bed along with other marine fossils and sedimentary structures provide evidence for an almost uninterrupted deposition under marine environment for the upper part of the Nimar Sandstone. The discovery of upper Gondwana plant fossils in the lower horizon of Nimar is undisputed. A new trace fossil Striatolites gen. et. sp. nov. is described.

The discovery of upper Gondwana plant fossils in the lower horizon of Nimar is undisputed. A new trace fossil Striatolites gen. et. sp. nov. is described.
