Description
Summary:In his publications (34, 35) Dr. N. TOLUN, who has done geological Studies in the Diyarbakır Province, Hazru County, in 1951 and 1952, has worked on the detailed stratigraphy of the region and has also described the Carboniferous sandstones. In the same region, in 1958, the field Studies were carried out by R. H. WAGNER (37), the phytopaleontologist of the Mineral Research and Exploration Institute. He recognized the existence of Permian in the above-mentioned region through his plant fossils that he had collected and determined. The Algae, which are the characteristic of Permian, were determined by Mrs. U. BİLGÜTAY (6) from a limestone sample collected some 50 meters above the continental layers. The material studied was brought by R.H. WAGNER (WAG. nos. 2, 5) and the drawings of the spores were prepared by o. KARADENiZ. We wish to express here our appreciation of their help. In our material of study, we have discovered nine new species of Megaspores that are individually described below.
