Paleobotany, Second Edition: The Biology and Evolution of Fossil Plants. A team of paleobotanists, including scientists from the Senckenberg Research Institute (SRI) in Frankfurt, the University of London and the Florida Museum of Natural History, described at least 140 genera of fossil plants. The fossil record shows that the different classes of plants emerged all of a sudden in the world, each with its own particular characteristics, and with no period of evolution behind it.

It was the start of the age of mammals, and Africa was largely an For a continent so important for its role in the evolution of mammals, the scarcity of plant fossil data stands in sharp contrast. The study of plants in the fossil record, in order to understand both the evolution of plant life and the ecology of ancient eras, is known as paleobotany. Originally, Cindy was going to attend a biannual workshop of the Evolution of Terrestrial Ecosystem Program.
