Discovery of a Lochkovian flora (Lower Devonian) in the Iberian Peninsula

Abstract: Th e Lower Devonian represents an important episode in plant life history, which was marked by the diversifi cation of land plants. Unfortunately, remains of early Devonian plants in the Iberian Peninsula are scarce. In the present paper, we describe a small assemblage of early land plants from the Lochkovian (Lower Devonian) of the Teruel Province in Spain. Th e main element consists of Taeniocrada-like sterile stems that are predominantly dichotomous and ribbon-like with a narrow central strand. An unidentif… Show more

“…To date, this Lower Devonian flora includes several dichotomous branching remains, a putative basal euphyllophyte, Taeniocrada ‐like stems and Hostinella , as well as a high diversity of spore genera ( Ambitisporites , Amicosporites , Aneurospora , Apiculiretusispora , Brochotriletes , Chelinospora , Coronaspora , Cymbosporites , Dibolisporites , Emphanisporites , Gneudnaspora , Iberoespora , Latosporites , Retusotriletes , Scylaspora and Verrucosisporites , among others) (Cascales‐Miñana et al . , , ). The Nogueras Formation ranges from the middle Lochkovian to mid‐Pragian and is formed by three members, from base to top: d2a, d2b and d2c (Carls & Valenzuela‐Ríos ; Dojen et al .…”

“…Se trouvent rassemblées ici des données nouvelles correspondant aux résultats marquants des travaux de recherche doctorale de jeunes docteurs (Villanueva-Amadoz et al 2011, Legrand et al 2011) et de recherches post-doctorales (Jacques et al 2011) ou de chercheurs confirmés (Galtier et al 2011 ;Philippe et al 2011 ;Cascales et al 2011 ;Vieira et al 2011 ;Vozenin et al 2011) L'éventail des thématiques couvre l'étude de bois fossiles, macroflores conservées en empreintes, compressions et perminéralisations, microflores observées en microscopies photonique et électronique, morphométrie appliquée aux fruits fossiles. Toutes ces nouvelles données paléobotaniques et palynologiques, replacées dans leur contexte sédimentaire, sont utilisées comme « proxies » pour caractériser les contextes paléoclimatiques et paléoenvironnementaux dans lesquels se sont déposés les sédiments qui les referment et même, chaque fois que possible, pour des reconstitutions paléophytogéographiques globales.…”
