Abstract
Various Lower Tertiary epiphyllous microfungi are described from southern Australia, including the monotypic new genus CRIBRITES aurea gen. et sp. nov. and the new species Callimothallus australis. Modern equivalents were searched for in 72 leaf-litter samples from Australasia. The habitat indicator value of the fossils is assessed by comparison with the geographic, climatic and vegetational relationships of the modern forms.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
