Late Permian plant impressions comprising six taxa have been obtained from the North Greenland fold belt. Rhipidopsis, a probable ginkgophyte, occurs together with the fems Prynadaeopteris venusta Radczenko and Pecopteris (Asterotheca?) cf. P. (A?) helenaeana Zalessky, the sphenophyte Sphenophyllum cf. S. biarnicum Zalessky the cordaitean Cordaites cf. C. sylovaensis (Neuburg) Meyen and a possibie conifer branch fragment. The assemblage invites comparison with the Pechora flora of the northem Pre-Urals, and also with that of Mongolia and north-eastern China. These may be warm temperate floras on approximately the same palaeolatitude.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
