This palynomorph is occur within reworked sediments in Iraqi Kurdistan. I think it is Devonian in age any other suggestion?
Rzger:
Kindly provide scale and indicate associated reworked palynoformphs including the actual age of the younger horizon.

Dear Kak Rezgar,
It is almost impossible to decide, at least you have to know from where you got the sample, what type of rocks??
Varoujan
Dear Syed and Varoujan,
The scale is x100 and it is from Northern Iraq and I think it is from Carboniferous ? horizons.
Regards,
Dear Rzger,
I think it is spore named insculptospora maxima sp.nov
Please have a look to the following article:
Climate-controlled palynofacies and miospore stratigraphy of the Jauf Formation, Lower Devonian, northern Saudi Arabia
Article in Review of Palaeobotany and Palynology 212:187-213 · January 2015

Specimen documented by Rzger does not match the species: Insculptospora maxima . Have a look at the documented form in this link:

I am pretty sure it is not Insculptospora maxima. Looks like a long-ranging retusoid form. What is the amb size and the ornamentation type?
