Abstract: A total of 16 plant megafossil species has been identified in the two Maran collections. Five of these are pteridophytes of the genus Gleichenoides Kon‘no in the family Gleicheniaceae. One is a sphenopsid referred to the genus Equisetites. Five are cycadophytes referred to the three genera Otozamites, Ptilophyllum, and Zamites. A single species of conifer in the genus Frenelopsis appears to have affinities with the Cupressaceae, and cones of the species were related to the form-genus Conites by Kon‘no. Two other leaf forms, possibly conifers, are assigned to the genera ?Pelourdea and ?Nageiopsis. A possible fruiting body is referred to ?Carpolithes. No records of Ginkgophytes or of Angiosperms (Dicotyledons) are present in the later Mesozoic (Neocomian) floras of West Malaysia.
