Lower Devonian coalified sporangia from Shropshire: Salopella Edwards & Richardson and Tortilicaulis Edwards
TL;DR: A diverse assemblage of coalified sporangia from Lochkovian/Gedinnian, fluvial rocks imicrornatus-newportensis Spore Biozone) contains fusiform forms assignable to Salopella Edwards & Richardson and Tortilicaulis Edwards, and trilete, equatorially thickened and highly distinctive.
Journal ArticleDOI
A diverse assemblage of early land plants from the Lower Devonian of the Welsh Borderland
TL;DR: The assemblage demonstrates diversity among rhyniophytoids in the early Devonian and the existence of low vegetation ‘alongside’ the much larger zosterophyll dominated type.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exceptional preservation in Lower Devonian coalified fossils from the Welsh Borderland: a new genus based on reniform sporangia lacking thickened borders
TL;DR: Reniform sporangia recovered from Lower Old Red Sandstone strata of Devonian age (micrornatus-newportensis Spore Biozone: lower Gedinnian lower Lochkovian) on North Brown Clee Hill in the Welsh Borderland are placed in Resilitheca salopensis gen. et sp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Further evidence for diversity in late Silurian land vegetation
TL;DR: In this paper, small coalified plant fragments from basal Pridoli (Silurian) strata at Perton near Hereford, England comprise isotomously branching smooth axes terminating in vertically elongate sporangia.

Regular ArticleLower Devonian coalified sporangia from Shropshire: Salopella Edwards & Richardson and Tortilicaulis Edwards
TL;DR: A diverse assemblage of coalified sporangia from Lochkovian/Gedinnian, fluvial rocks (micromatus-newportensis Spore Biozone) contains fusiform forms assignable to Salopella Edwards & Richardson and Tortilicaulis Edwards, whose anatomical examination by scanning electron microscope necessitates elimination of gross morphology.
