Frame ID: TS81

All of the red material is vitrinite except for a few resinite ovoids at the top half of the frame. The feature in the center of the field is a megasporinite. The striations running across the megaspore are artifacts from polishing. The back material is inertinite and the small yellow features are sporinite. (transmitted light, Harlan Seam, eastern Kentucky, width of field, left to right: ~350 µm)
