The plants that produced unique resinous coals (rhabdopissites) of the Lipovtsy coal field are revealed. They belong mainly to the group Miroviaceae (Oswaldheeria). Pseudotorellia (Ginkgoales) played an important role in the formation of humic coals of this Early Cretaceous coal field. The coal-forming plants comprise also cyatheaceous and gleicheniaceous ferns. A leafy shoot of Pseudotorellia has been found in this locality for the first time. It is assigned to the new species Pseudotorellia krassilovii Bugdaeva sp. nov.
