Abstract
The affinities of a puzzling microfossil, Ningbingellina veeversi n. gen., n. sp., originally reported from the Late Devonian Ningbing Limestone, in the Bonapart Gulf Basin, Western Australia are discussed. Links with the thallus of uncalcified dasycladale Aciculelleae, with udoteaceans, and with calcispheres are explored, and an affinity with calcified dasycladale sporangium is tentatively proposed.
期刊介绍:
Alcheringa : An Australasian Journal of Palaeontology is the official journal of the Australasian Palaeontologists.
Alcheringa covers all aspects of palaeontology and its ramifications into the earth and biological sciences, including:
Taxonomy-

Micropalaeontology-
Vertebrate palaeontology-
Palaeobotany-
Palynology-
Palaeobiology-
Palaeoanatomy-
Palaeoecology-
Biostratinomy-
Biogeography-
Chronobiology-
Biogeochemistry-
Palichnology.
Review articles are welcome, and may be solicited from time to time. Thematic issues are also possible. Emphasis is placed on high quality and informative illustration, in both line drawings and photographs. Papers of general significance may receive preference over those of more local interest.
