Resumo

Bumbudendron versiforme sp. nov. is described on the basis of imprints from the Agua Colorada Formation, Sierra de Famatina, Argentina. It is characterized by fusiform leaf cushions with a variable length-width ratio in a single stem. Megaspores are found associated with the lycopod remains. Comparisons with other species having infrafoliar bladders are made. The associated microflora suggests a Late Carboniferous age for this lycophyte species.
