“…Fossils of various angiosperms, bryophytes, ferns and gymnosperms have been reported from many amber deposits worldwide, but detailed descriptions have focused mostly on inclusions from Miocene Dominican and Mexican ambers (Miranda, 1963;Calvillo-Canadell et al, 2010;Chambers et al, 2011;Heinrichs et al, 2014Heinrichs et al, , 2015aLee et al, 2015;Schneider et al, 2015;Poinar and Struwe, 2016), Palaeogene European ambers (Frahm, 1996;Grolle and Meister, 2004;Koller et al, 2005;Dörfelt and Schmidt, 2007;Schmidt and Dörfelt, 2007;Ignatov and Perkovsky, 2011;Heinrichs et al, 2015a, b;Mamontov et al, 2015;Sadowski et al, 2015Sadowski et al, , 2016, and Cretaceous Burmese and New Jersey ambers (Crepet and Nikon, 1998;Poinar and Buckley, 2008;Hentschel et al, 2009;Chambers et al, 2010;Heinrichs et al, 2012;Schneider et al, 2016). Pollen grains, sporangia, sporophytes, leaves and flowers can be very finely preserved in amber, allowing detailed morphological studies; however, analyses with standard optical microscopes are limited to the gross morphology of the amber inclusions, and only the use of invasive techniques such as amber thin-sectioning has permitted access to cellular and histological details of the plants (Koller et al, 2005).…”
