Evolutionary History of the Genus Pseudolarix Gordon (Pinaceae)

TL;DR: The spatial and temporal distribution pattern of fossil Pseudolarix indicates that displacement between Eurasia and North America from the Late Jurassic/Early Cretaceous to the Plio-Pleistocene occurred through Beringia and the newly defined Spitsbergen Corridor; the North Atlantic routes were apparently not used by Pseud polarix.

TL;DR: The epidermal microcharacters of 20 genera in the Ranunculaceae and 10 outgroup genera from the families Glaucidiaceae, Circaeasteraceae, Berberidaceae, Menispermaceae, and Lar- dizabalaceae were studied employing scanning electron and light microscopy to assess phylogeny in the family.
