Abstract

The paper describes two gymnospermous woods, namely Araucarioxylon Kraus, 1870 and Podocarpoxylon Gothan, 1905 from the Late Cenozoic sediments (Shumar Formation) of district Jaisalmer, Rajasthan, western India. The woods indicate favourable climatic conditions for the growth of mesic vegetation in Rajasthan till Plio-Pleistocene time compared to the xeric vegetation and drier conditions in the area today.
