Lycopodiopsis, a Southern Hemisphere Lepidophyte
DOI:
https://doi.org/10.54991/jop.1952.407Abstract
Stem impressions of Lycopodiopsis (here taken to include Cyclodendron) are figured from the Permian of Western Australia, and the distribution of the genus is discussed. The stem impressions from the Permian of South Africa and Brazil hitherto recorded as "Sigillaria brardi" are considered to be older stems of Lycopodiopsis pedroanus. There are no satisfactory records of northern hemisphere lepidophytes in the Glossopteris flora of the southern hemisphere.
