This
paleobotany list records new
fossilplanttaxa that were to be
described during the year 2024, as well as notes other significant paleobotany discoveries and events which occurred during 2024.
A dasycladalean alga; a replacement name for Heterocladus LoDuca, Kluessendorf & Mikulic (2003).
Phycological research
Putative
dasycladalean alga Voronocladus dryganti from the
Silurian of
Ukraine is argued by LoDuca (2024) to be a member of
Bryopsidales; the author also reinterprets purported
graptolite-like
epibionts of V. dryganti, originally described as the new taxon Podoliagraptus algaeoides, as actually representing the uppermost siphons of mature
thalli of V. dryganti.[5]
A diverse charophyte flora, including fossil material of Echinocharacf.peckii representing the oldest record of the family
Clavatoraceae reported to date, is described from the Middle Jurassic (
Bathonian) marginal marine beds of southern
France by Trabelsi, Sames & Martín-Closas (2024).[6]
A member of
Isoetales belonging to the group
Dichostrobiles. The type species is H. longshanense. The generic name is preoccupied by Heliodendron Gill.K.Br. & Bayly (2022).
A study on the phylogenetic relationships of extant and fossil members of
Cyatheales, and on the biogeography of the group throughout its evolutionary history, is published by Ramírez-Barahona (2024).[16]
Machado et al. (2024) describe fossil material of Pteridium sp.
cf.P. esculentum from the Miocene Ñirihuau Formation (
Argentina) representing the oldest and southernmost record of Pteridium from South America reported to date.[17]
A conifer with affinities with the family
Cupressaceae. The type species is A. pilosum. Published online in 2024, but the issue date is listed as December 2023.
Decombeix, Hiller & Bomfleur (2024) describe a dwarf conifer tree from the Middle Triassic strata in
Antarctica preserving evidence suppressed growth likely caused by stressful local site conditions in spite of overall favorable regional climate, representing the first finding of a tree with such suppressed growth in the fossil record reported to date.[27]
Xie, Gee & Griebeler (2024) use growth models based on the height–diameter relationships of extant araucarians to determine heights of araucariaceous logs from the Upper Jurassic
Morrison Formation (
Utah,
United States).[28]
A study on the
phytolith morphology of palms and on the utility of phytoliths for reconstructions of environment of fossils palms is published by Brightly et al. (2024), who find that phytoliths do not reliably differentiate most palm taxa, though they might be useful to determine the presence of more distinct (and possibly environmentally informative) members of the group in the fossil record.[35]
A study on the affinities of elongated fossil fruits of members of the genus Carex, providing evidence of the continued presence of Carex sect. Cyperoideae in the Old World since the Miocene, is published by Martinetto et al. (2024).[36]
Patel et al. (2024) describe fossil reproductive organ of a member of the genus Nelumbo from the Palana Formation (
India), and interpret this finding as indicative of the existence of a freshwater ecosystem in the Rajasthan Basin during the early Eocene.[38]
Lagrange, Martínez & Del Rio (2024) study the seed morphology of members of the tribe
Paropsieae in the family
Passifloraceae, and argue that, with exception of distinctive seeds of members of the genus Androsiphonia, fossil Paropsieae cannot be identified confidently based solely on seed characters.[58]
A flowering plant of uncertain affinities. Oskolski et al. (2024) interpreted it as a flowering plant with an affinity to
Rhamnaceae, possibly to an extinct basal lineage;[63] on the other hand Beurel et al. (2024) interpreted it as a flowering plant with probable magnoliid affinities.[62] The type species is "Phylica" piloburmensis Shi et al. (2022).
A chloranthoid flowering plant. The type species is W. portugallica.
The first fossil record of a flower of a member of the genus Cryptocarya is reported from the Miocene Zhangpu amber (
China) by Beurel et al. (2024).[65]
Angiosperm research
Hošek et al. (2024) report fossil evidence from the northernmost part of the Vienna Basin in southern Moravia (
Czech Republic) indicative of survival of trees such as oak, linden and Fraxinus excelsior in the area during the
Last Glacial Maximum, and interpret their survival as made possible by the existence of hot springs providing stable conditions for the long-term maintenance of
refugia.[66]
Redescription and a study on the affinities of Stauroxylon beckii is published by Durieux et al. (2024).[84]
A study on the morphological diversity of cycad leaves throughout their evolutionary history, providing evidence of a dynamic history of diversification, is published by Coiro & Seyfullah (2024).[85]
Zhang et al. (2024) compile a dataset of macroscopic and cuticular traits of fossils of members of the group
Czekanowskiales from China, and use it to classify the studied fossils on the basis of quantitative analytical evidence.[86]
A study on the morphology and affinities of Furcula granulifer is published by Coiro et al. (2024), who interpret the studied plant as a likely relative of
pteridosperms such as Scytophyllum and Vittaephyllum, and interpret F. granulifer as a plant that evolved its hierarchical vein system of leaves
convergently with the flowering plants.[87]
Mamontov, McLean & Gavrilova (2024) study the ultrastructure of Maiaspora concava and M. panopta, providing evidence of similarities with extant
Gleicheniales, and interpret the origin of the Gleicheniales stem as related to closure of the
Rheic Ocean in the Paleozoic.[90]
A study on the palynoflora from the Permian Emakwezini Formation (
South Africa) is published by Balarino et al. (2024), who interpret the studied fossils as providing evidence of the presence of complex forests during the
Guadalupian, with plant diversity greater than indicated by the macrofloral record.[91]
A study on the fossil record of Early Triassic
palynomorphs from the
Vikinghøgda Formation (Svalbard, Norway), providing evidence of a shift from lycophyte-dominated to a gymnosperm-dominated vegetation related to the onset of a cooling episode, is published by Leu et al. (2024).[92]
A study on the age of the Santa Clara Abajo and the Santa Clara Arriba formations and their palynomorph assemblages, previously inferred to be
Carnian-
Norian in age, is published by Benavente et al. (2024), who determine an upper
Anisian age for both formations, and interpret their findings as indicating that the taxonomic composition of Triassic
Gondwanan palynomorph assemblages correlates more strongly with latitude than with geologic age.[93]
The interpretation of Cycadopites and Ricciisporites proposed by Vajda et al. (2023), who considered them to represent, respectively, normal and aberrant pollen produced by the same plant with Lepidopteris ottonis foliage and Antevsia zeilleri pollen sacs,[94] is contested by Zavialova (2024);[95] Vajda et al. (2024) subsequently reaffirm that Antevsia zeilleri produced Cycadopites and Ricciisporites pollen.[96]
Evidence from pollen and spores from the Jiyuan Basin (China), interpreted as indicative of a relationship between two peaks of wildfires of different types and changes in plant communities during the Triassic-Jurassic transition, is presented by Zhang et al. (2024).[97]
Evidence of high abundances of malformed fern spores from the Lower Saxony Basin (
Germany) during the Triassic–Jurassic transition, interpreted as indicative of persistence of volcanic-induced mercury pollution after the Triassic–Jurassic extinction event, is presented by Bos et al. (2024).[98]
Rodrigues et al. (2024) study the palynological assemblages from the Kwanza Basin (
Angola) ranging from the late Albian to the Turonian, reporting the presence of pollen indicative of subtropical to tropical climate and
dinocysts with higher latitude affinities, and interpret these findings as indicative of existence of an open connection between the Central Atlantic and South Atlantic oceans in the mid-Cretaceous.[99]
Evidence from fossil pollen interpreted as indicative of existence of ecological corridors linking Andean, Atlantic and Amazonian regions of South America during the
Last Glacial Maximum, resulting in establishment of complex connectivity patterns between plants from the studied parts of South America, is presented by Pinaya et al. (2024).[101]
General Research
A study addressing and evaluating the uncertainty of plant fossil phylogenetics is published by Coiro (2024).[102]
Review of functional traits in the plant fossil record is published by
McElwainet al. (2024).[103]
Evidence of the existence of two plant dispersal routes in the Devonian, connecting the South China and Euramerica–Siberia realms, is presented by Liu et al. (2024).[104]
Davies, McMahon & Berry (2024) describe plant fossils from the Devonian (
Eifelian)
Hangman Sandstone Formation (Somerset and Devon,
United Kingdom), intepreted as remains of
cladoxylopsid-dominated forest and possibly the oldest global evidence for the spacing of growing trees.[105]
Evidence of changes of composition and diversity of the flora from the Carboniferous coal swamps of the Nord-Pas-de-Calais Coalfield (France) in response to climate and landscape changes is presented by Molina-Solís et al. (2024).[106]
A study on changes of floral communities in southwestern China during the Permian-Triassic transition is published by Hua et al. (2024), who provide evidence indicative of frequent wildfires that destroyed the stability of wetlands prior to the main extinction phase and inhibited recovery in the aftermath of the
Permian–Triassic extinction event, and resulted in gradual replacement of fern-dominated floral communities by gymnosperm-dominated ones.[107]
Gurung et al. (2024) use a new vegetation and climate model to study links between plant geographical range, the long-term carbon cycle and climate, and find that reduced geographical range of plants in
Pangaea resulted in increased atmospheric CO2 concentration during the Triassic and Jurassic periods, while the expande geographical range of plants after the breakup of Pangaea amplified global CO2 removal.[108]
Kvaček et al. (2024) reconstruct Cenomanian plant communities from the
Peruc–Korycany Formation (
Czech Republic), providing evidence of diversification and dominance of flowering plant both in the Bohemian Cretaceous Basin and in Europe in general (particularly in alluvial plains).[109]
Deaths
