Two new fossil woods of Sapindaceae from the Tertiary of India

The present paper deals with two sapindaceous woods, viz., Euphorioxylon1 indicum gen. et sp. nov. and Schleicheroxylon kachchhensis gen. et sp. nov. These show the closest resemblance with the woods of Euphoria and Schleichera respectively. The former is being reported from both the Kankawati Series of Kachchh and the Cuddalore Series near Pondicherry while the latter is from the Kankawati Series of Kachchh only.
