Abstract
Palynological assemblages of the lower Karoo Morupule Main Seam of Botswana are similar to those of the Striatopodocarpites fusus Biozone of the Colli e Basin, Western Australia and the 3a Microfloral Biozone of the northern K aroo Basin, South Africa. This indicates an Aktastinian (Early Permian) age for the strata of Morupule.
