    Paleobotany, also spelled as palaeobotany, is the branch of botany dealing with the recovery and identification of plant remains from geological contexts, and their use for the biological reconstruction of past environments (paleogeography), and the evolutionary history of plants, with a bearing upon the evolution of life in general.

    The plant shows a high degree of development in relation to the age of its fossil remains. Fossils of this plant have been recorded in Australia, [39] [40] Canada, [41] and China. [42] Eohostimella heathana is an early, probably terrestrial, "plant" known from compression fossils [43] of Early Silurian (Llandovery) age. [44]

  9. Timeline of plant evolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_plant_evolution

    The identification of plant fossils in Cambrian strata is an uncertain area in the evolutionary history of plants because of the small and soft-bodied nature of these plants. It is also difficult in a fossil of this age to distinguish among various similar appearing groups with simple branching patterns, and not all of these groups are plants.
