FIGURE 3. Sirodotia assamica sp. nov. a. Main axis. b. Whorl showing densely arranged gonimoblast filaments along the internode (arrow). c. Primary fascicles and spermatangia (Sp) in clusters on a primary fascicle. d. Carposporangia (Cp), prostrate (Pr) and erect (Er) gonimoblast filaments. e. Detail of spermatangia (Sp) in clusters on primary fascicle. f. Spermatangia (Sp) in clusters on a secondary fascicle. g. A carpogonium with a mature trichogyne (Tr) and a basal hemispherical protuberance (PB). h. Fertilized carpogonium with attached spermatium and gonimoblast initial (GI) on the same side of the basal protuberance. Scale bar: 100 µm for figure a; 50 µm for figures b, c and f; 20 µm for figures d,e,g and h.
