Abstract
The stomatal structure of the medullosalean frond species Odontopteris schlotheimii is documented for the first time. This supports the view that it is taxonomically distinct from the morphologically similar but rather older frond-species Odontopteris cantabrica. Evidence is also presented that supports the view that the types of Neuropteris pseudoblissii are conspecific with O. schlotheimii.
期刊介绍:
The Review of Palaeobotany and Palynology is an international journal for articles in all fields of palaeobotany and palynology dealing with all groups, ranging from marine palynomorphs to higher land plants. Original contributions and comprehensive review papers should appeal to an international audience. Typical topics include but are not restricted to systematics, evolution, palaeobiology, palaeoecology, biostratigraphy, biochronology, palaeoclimatology, paleogeography, taphonomy, palaeoenvironmental reconstructions, vegetation history, and practical applications of palaeobotany and palynology, e.g. in coal and petroleum geology and archaeology. The journal especially encourages the publication of articles in which palaeobotany and palynology are applied for solving fundamental geological and biological problems as well as innovative and interdisciplinary approaches.
