Material. Sample Pb-9334, Palynology Laboratory, IGLUNAM.
Description. Monad pollen, isopolar, radiosymmetric, amb triangular. Triporate, pores aspidate. Exine tectate, granulate, 0.8–1 P m thick, psilate.
Dimensions. Equatorial diameter 41–50 µm, three specimens measured.
Comparisons. This species of Corsinipollenites exhibits a characteristic pore with evident granulate structure. Although granulate structure is present in Corsinipollenites sp. 1 and Corsinipollenites sp. 2 , more aspidate pores are present in Corsinipollenites sp. 1 ; Corsinipollenites sp. 2 presents less aspidate pores than the other two species described. Corsinipollenites sp. 3 has similar dimensions and annulus thickness to Corsinipollenites atlantica described from the Argentinian Oligocene–Miocene by Barreda and Palamarczuk (2000b); nevertheless, the exine of C. atlantica is thicker. This taxon closely resembles Corsinipolleites cf. psilatus from the Melot Basin, southeast Sudan ( Eisawi and Schrank, 2008).
