Text-fig. 12a–e View Text-fig
Description and remarks. The material comprises a single stamen with an elongated, elliptical and tetrasporangiate anther ( Text-fig. 12a View Text-fig ) that has in situ Clavatipollenites - type pollen ( Text-fig. 12b–e View Text-fig ). The anther is about 0.5 mm long and about 0.25 mm broad. Pollen is monoaperturate, but the grains are typically folded and the aperture is not fully exposed in any of the specimens. The grains are about 15–17 µm in diameter. The exine is semitectate-reticulate with a homobrochate reticulum ( Text-fig. 12b–e View Text-fig ). Lumina are irregular and up to about 1.5 µm in diameter. Muri are narrow, about 0.4 µm wide and ornamented with verrucae or spines arranged in one to two rows. Columellae are long, about 0.7 µm, and widely spaced ( Text-fig. 12d View Text-fig ). Orbicules on the inner surface of the anther wall and on the surface of the pollen grains are tiny, spherical and with fine spines ( Text-fig. 12e View Text-fig ).
