Rhynie flora

Japanese: ライニー植物群 - ライニーしょくぶつぐん(英語表記)Rhynie flora
Rhynie flora
A group of Early Devonian plants discovered near Rhynie in northern Scotland. They are part of the Rhynie Chert (→Chert), a preserved silicified peat from bogs where primitive land plants grew. They include a variety of taxa, such as the early vascular plant Rhynia , non-vascular plants such as Aglaophyton and Horneophyton , which have conductive tissue, and the leaf-like plant Asteroxylon , providing insight into the early diversification of land plants. The Rhynie Chert also preserves symbiotic fungi and arthropods such as mites, making it a fossil of an early terrestrial ecosystem.
