Palynology of the Chigua (Devonian) and Malimán (Carboniferous) formations in the Volcán Range, San Juan Province, Argentina. Part I. Paleomicroplankton and acavate smooth and ornamented spores
Palynological analysis of the Chigua and Malimán formations of Devonian and Early Carboniferous age respectively, cropping out in the Río Blanco Basin, northwestern Argentina, has yielded diverse paleomicroplankton-spore assemblages. In this first part, 35 species of paleomicroplankton and 68 specie...

Other spore species are first recorded in the Lower Carboniferous of South America, amongst them are cited Granulatisporites triconvexus Staplin, Pustulatisporites papillosus (Knox) Potonié and Kremp, Verrucosisporites microtuberosus (Loose) Smith and Butterworth, Dibolisporites medaensis (Playford) Playford, Anapiculatisporites ampullaceus (Hacquebard) Playford, Lophotriletes severus Playford and Satterthwait, Raistrickia gemmifera Playford and Satterthwait and Convolutispora tuberculata (Waltz) Hoffmeister, Staplin and Malloy.
