Resumen
Troncoso, A. Departamento de Biologia Vegetal,Universidad de Talca, Casilla 747, Talca, Chile. Fossil cycadophyte leaves from three localities in northern Chile are described. They include four species of Pseudoctenis: P. longipinnata Anderson and Anderson, P. harringtoniana Bonetti, P. multilineata (Shirley) nov. comb., and P. megaspatulata nov. sp.; also Pterophyllum azcaratei nov. sp. and a fragment assigned to cf. Cycadites sp. Except for the Quebrada La Cachivarita locality (area of Cerro La Ternera) where they are relatively abundant, the Cycadophytes are rather scare in the Chilean Triassic floras.
