Abstract
One Beacon coal sample from the Priestley Glacier and two Ferrar mudstone samples from the Rennick Glacier region yielded a total of 33 species of spores (of which two are new) and two species of acritarchs. All species are described in detail and consideration is given to their distribution in Antarctica and elsewhere. A late Triassic age is suggested for the Beacon microflora and an early Jurassic age for the Ferrar microfloras.
