Overview
Pollen from an Atlas Cedar (Cedrus atlantica, Pinaceae).
Like pine pollen, cedar pollen has two air sacs which help it travel between trees.
Technical description of Cedrus atlantica pollen, from PalDat (Tweraser & Loos, 2016): large heteropolar monads, bisaccate and oblate, elliptic in polar view, with a leptoma and verrucate, fossulate and perforate exine.
