Abstract

Svalbardia osmanica Petrosjan et Radczenko from the Middle Devonian deposits (Izyly Formation) of Kuznetsk Basin is re-studied from the type material (CNIGR-museum, Saint-Petersburg). An emended diagnosis of S. osmanica including new data on morphology and anatomy of sterile plant fragments and fertile structures with in-situ spores from the microsporangia is given. Dispersed spores from the same deposits that included S. osmanica indicates a Givetian age for the Izyly Formation.
