#Sphenobaiera vitimica is an Early #Cretaceous leaf from the Transbaikal region of southeast Russia. The genus Sphenobaiera differs from Baiera-Ginkgoites in not having a true petiole, instead multiple veins extend from a constricted base. #paleobotany #paleoart #aGinkgoaDay
Another Eretmophyllum for #aGinkgoaDay; this one is rather special. Eretmophyllum obtusum is a leaf taxon which is part of the whole plant Nehvizdyella bipartita. This plant was a salt-marsh adapted ginkgoale from the Late Cretaceous of Europe! #paleoart #paleobotany
Today's #aGinkgoaDay is one of the less Ginkgo-like leaves. This is Eretmophyllum penalveri; it's an elliptical leaf likely belonging to the plant Nehvizdyella, which was a salt marsh adapted ginkgoalean from the Jurassic and Cretaceous of Laurasia. #paleobotany #paleoart #plants
I'm going to try and start reposting my #aGinkgoaDay again. Starting off, we're finally moving away from Ginkgo(ites):
This is #Baiera aquilonia, from the Early #Cretaceous of the Arctic. Baiera species are primarily differentiated from Ginkgoites in having fewer veins per lobe. #paleoart #plants
Day 12 of reposting #aGinkgoaDay:
Ginkgoites dissecta!!!
This'll also be the last day of reposting, as I'm now all caught up! Onwards with some new species!
