A new taxon of Permian megaspore, Saksenasporites gen. nov., is described from Birsinghpur Pali, Madhya Pradesh (India). The new megaspore is characterised by unequal trilete laesurae, one or two of them extending beyond arcuate ridges, mixed verrucose- baculose sexine sculpture, distinct contact areas delimited by arcuate ridges, and unpitted nexine. A new suprainfraturma, Verrucosi-baculati nov., is proposed in the text. Taxonomic consideration of the new megaspore is based on SEM and LM studies.
