Paleobotany From New World Encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Previous (Paleoanthropology) Next (Paleocene) Paleobotany (from the words paleon, "old," and botanikos, "of herbs") is the branch of paleontology dealing with the recovery and identification of plant remains from geological contexts, and their use in the reconstruction of past environments and the history of life The parent discipline, paleontology, is the study of the developing history of life on Earth based on the fossil record, with paleobotany dealing with plant remains, paleozoology with animal remains, and micropaleontology with microfossils. Paleobotany includes the study of terrestrial plant fossils as well as the study of marine autotrophs, such as algae . A closely related field to paleobotany is palynology , the study of fossil and extant spores and pollen Paleobotany not only addresses the inner nature of humans to know more about the history of life , but also has practical application today, helping people to better understand such aspects as climate change. Paleobotany is important in the reconstruction of prehistoric ecological systems and climate, known as paleoecology and

You are here: Paleobotany of Angiosperm Origins E S S A Y C O N T E N T S [ Paleobotany of Angiosperm Origins ] JOHN M. MILLER, PH.D. Having discussed the origin of angiosperms from shrub-like Carboniferous or Permo-Triassic seed plant stock I outline and discuss the biodiversity and paleontology of extinct Paleozoic lignophytes and their phytophagous insect associates, which is necessary to solve the riddle of angiosperm beginnings within a coevolutionary and phylogenetic context. This second of three essays states potential challenges from the paleobotanical research perspective, surveys the main groups of seed plants most often discussed as possible ancestors of flowering plants, diagrams a hypothetical Paleozoic gigantopteroid proanthostrobilus, which is concordant with the latest models of gene expression and fertile SAM organization; and concludes with a brief homology assessment of angiosperm carpels, ovules, stamens, and pollen preparatory to a preliminary cladistic analysis. Is there convincing fossil evidence of the first flowering plants or their antecedents? No, according to E. L. Taylor and T. N. Taylor (2009).

BoardMax for Trustees Paleobotany Paleobotany is the scientific study of ancient plants. Paleobotanists learn what plants were like long ago from fossils found in sedimentary rocks. These fossils can be impressions or compressions of the plants left on the rock’s surface, or “petrified” objects, such as wood, which preserve the original plant material in rocklike form. Still other specimens are found in calcified lumps called coal balls, so named because they are usually found in or near coal deposits. The Museum’s Paleobotany collection is composed of about 30,000 fossil specimens spanning the time period from the Precambrian Period to the Pleistocene Epoch. Of these, about 3,000 are from the Mississippian to Tertiary ages and the rest are from the Pennsylvanian (Coal Age). They are stored in steel cabinets. All have been cataloged in a computerized database.

Palenobotany Discovery Laurel's Cone (cm scale)- This fossil cone was found at Jones Ranch in the same deposits as the dinosaur bones. Large fossilized logs and smaller cones were also found in these deposits. The cones and logs are most likely from an extinct family of plants that were common during the Cretaceous (the family, Cheirolepidiaceae - pronounced, "k-eye-ro-lep-id-eee-ay-cee). In some ways, they looked similar to trees in the juniper family ("mountain cedar" in Texas). For example, a species common in the Cretaceous of Texas had very small, scale-like leaves. Late Cretaceous environment. This is a reconstruction of some Late Cretaceous vegetation made by the artist, Karen Carr. The large white flowers, the brownish spiky fruit stalks and associated cleft leaves are all extinct relatives of the magnolia. These are all flowering plants (angiosperms). Fossil evidence indicates that flowering plants first evolved sometime during the Early Cretaceous - the oldest flowering plant fossils date to about 132 million years ago. The entire Cretaceous spans the time period from 144 to 65 million years ago.
