Abstract

A new species of Xenoxylon, X. yixianense is described from the Lower Cretaceous deposits of Western Liaoning. It differs from the known species of this genus in having transverse resin canals. The presence of transverse resin canals may indicate a traumatically abnormal condition or a taxonomic relationship between this species and Pinaceae.
