TAXON, Volume 72, Issue 4, Page 862-879, August 2023., 2023 Abstract Most remains of Carboniferous lyginopteridalean seed‐plant fronds used to be classified in a single fossil‐genus (Sphenopteris) based mainly on pinnule morphology. By incorporating additional characters linked to frond architecture and rachial features a more natural taxonomy has now been achieved.

Palaeontology, Volume 66, Issue 3, May/June 2023., 2023 Abstract Wetlands are important to continental evolution, providing both arenas and refugia for emerging and declining biotas. This significance and the high preservation potential make the resulting fossiliferous deposits essential for our understanding of past and future biodiversity.

Paleopteran molecular clock: Time drift and recent acceleration. [PDF]
Ecol EvolConstant evolution rates, which form the foundation of the strict molecular clock model, do not apply in the case of Paleoptera, highlighting a notable bias in the molecular clock hypothesis. The current biodiversity may be the outcome of a relatively recent, exponential increase in base substitution rates.
