“…five tonnes per year) is excavated from these deposits. Eight fossils of different families within the Polypodiales and many sporangia and spores have been found in Burmese amber (Poinar & Buckley, 2008;Schneider et al, 2016;Regalado et al, 2017aRegalado et al, , 2017bRegalado et al, , 2018Regalado et al, , 2019Li et al, 2018Li et al, , 2019 and several taxa await description. Four fern species were described from Dominican amber, so far (Gómez, 1982;Lóriga et al, 2014;Schneider et al, 2015;Sundue & Poinar, 2016).…”

“…Over the last years, fossils of fern foliage 20 – 23 exquisitely preserved in mid-Cretaceous amber from Myanmar 24 27 have become increasingly important as a source of new information on Cretaceous fern diversity and have contributed greatly to the resolution of several striking discrepancies between the age estimates obtained by molecular dating and the minimum ages of lineages provided by the fossil record, for instance with regard to the crown group Dennstaedtiaceae Lotsy 21 . Moreover, the recent discovery of a fossil assignable to the Lindsaeaceae in Burmese amber 22 provided evidence of the presence of early diverging polypod ferns of the suborder Lindsaeineae in the Cretaceous. Although this find is in agreement with divergence time estimates in molecular phylogenetic frameworks 10 13 , 21 , the fossil has not yet been used to calibrate a dated phylogenetic hypothesis for its putative extant relatives.…”

“…The newly described fossil is used to obtain a minimum age estimate for the fern family Cystodiaceae, as well as for the closely related Lonchitidaceae and Lindsaeaceae. This estimate is compared with results obtained from estimates in which either only the unnamed Lindsaeaceae fossil has been used 22 or both fossils are used together to calibrate a phylogenetic hypothesis for the extant members of the suborder Lindsaeineae and the closely related Saccolomatineae. Finally, the new fossil validates the hypothesis that the forest ecosystems of Malesia and Melanesia represent refugia for many tropical plant lineages that originated in the Cretaceous.…”

“…This study demonstrates the value of new discoveries in broadening our understanding of the complexity of the vegetation that grew in ancient landscapes. Heinrichsia cheilanthoides, together with recently discovered fossils of members of several other fern families, including Thyrsopteridaceae, Cystodiaceae, Dennstaedtiaceae, Lindsaeaceae, and eupolypods incertae sedis, in Burmese amber (Poinar & Buckley, 2008;Regalado et al, 2017aRegalado et al, , 2017bRegalado et al, , 2018bSchneider et al, 2016b;Li et al, 2018Li et al, , 2019, suggests that the Cretaceous amber forests of Myanmar were characterized by a rich fern flora, which appears to have been dominated by polypods based on the evidence gathered to date (Schneider et al, 2016b). We are well aware of the facts that this assessment is very preliminary and that detailed observations of many more specimens and forms will be necessary to complete the inventory of ferns in Burmese amber.…”
