Some Plant Remains from Hoshangabad District, Madhya Pradesh 'the Palaeobofallisf, 26(3); 206-213, 1980. SOME PLANT REMAINS FROM HOSHANGABAD DISTRICT, MADHYA PRADESH SUKH-DEV & ZEBA-BANO Birbal Sahni Institute of Palaeobotany, Lucknow-226 007, India ABSTRACT In this paper, Taelliopferis spafulafa McClelland, PtilophyllulIl aClltijoliulIl Morris, P. cutchellse Morris, P. illstifacallulIl Bose and Pagiophyllum manvarellsis Bose & Sukh-Dev are described from the Jurassic rocks (Gondwana) of Hoshangabad District. Except Ptilophyllt.m illstitacallllm and Pagiophyllum manvarellsis which are pre~erved as incrustations, the rest are in the form of impressions.

The plant tive account of some gymnosperms. remains in them are mostly preserved as impressions. Some incrustations are found in the carbonaceous shales near Parsapani. DESCRIPTION Our knowledge of the Jurassic flora of this district is based on Zeiller (1902), Seward CYCADALES and Sahni (1920), Crookshank (1935, 1936), Shah and Singh (1965a, b) and Zeba-Bano (1979). Most of the plant remains of this Genus - Taeniopteris Brongniart region have been listed. Only a small number of them have been described and illustrated: these are Moranocladus Taeniopteris spatulata McClelland oldhami (Zeill.)

    he. zool. S"rv. India,- 18: 1-20, 1981 STUDIES ON WILDLIFE OF NARBADA VALLEY I. GENERAL INTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY OF RESULTS By H. KHAJURIA Central Regional Station, Zoological Survey 0/ India, JabaJpur (With one Text-figure and three plates) OBJECT AND SCOPE Central Regional Station, Zoologial Survey of India was established in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, in 1960 and includes under its jurisdiction whole of Madhya Pradesh, the largest state in Indian Union and ad­ joining six districts of Maharashtra, the area which is generally kno:wn as Central India. Because of vast extent of the area, and varied ecologi~~l conditions, it was decided to collect knowledge of at least a cross section of the fauna within about ten years by undertaking the survey of the Narbada river, the largest and the most important river of the area which roughly divides Central India into two halves originating in north east of the area and flowing towards \vest practically for whole of its ~ength within the area except a small portion within Gujarat state. Also several important smaller rivers and streams of the area are its tributaries and, have practically same fauna as the Narbada. In order to have a good knowledge of terres~riaI fauna of Narbada valley also, the area on the either side of the river within a distance of about 15 lon. from the rivero' was also included in the survey. However, Jabalpur district was surveyed within 40 Ian radius of Jabalpur city. Studies on wildlife- in Kanha National Park, which is drained by tri. butaries of the Narbada river though not within the liumts Narbada Valley, were also carried out.
