Abstract

Fossil woods resembling modern woods of Homalium, Sterculia, Vitex, and a member of Lauraceae are described here from the Tipam sandstones of Rath Tila, near the town of Hailakandi, district Cachar, Assam. Modern equivalents of all these fossils are still found in the forests of Assam or Chittagong. The fossil woods of Homalium and Vitex are known for the first time from India and abroad.
