Psilophytales, Plant fossils, Devonian, SpainAbstract
The palaeoflora of a new bed of the Devonian in Spain is described here for the first time. The flora is very abundant and, although fragmentary and in a defective state of fossilization, allows a very acceptable morphological-systematic determination. Of the twenty-one species reported here and all of them, except Psilophyton, for the first time in Spain.
