A critical analysis of the higher Pennsylvanian megafloras of the Appalachian region

TL;DR: In this article, the results of personal investigations in the Appalachian region are reported and the authors make the conclusion that the succession in the Appalachians hides a large stratigraphic gap, at the base of the Upper Pennsylvanian Series.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plant biodiversity changes in Carboniferous tropical wetlands

TL;DR: Using a combination of species richness, polycohort and constrained cluster analyses, the plant biodiversity of Pennsylvanian (late Carboniferous) tropical wetlands (coal swamps) has been investigated in five areas in Western Europe and eastern North America: South Wales, Pennines, Ruhr, Saarland and Sydney coal basins as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phyto- and chronostratigraphical correlations between the late Pennsylvanian Morien Group (Sydney, Nova Scotia) and the Silesian Pennant Measures (south Wales)

TL;DR: Three macrofloral interval zones, Lobatopteris vestita, L. micromiltoni, and Linopteris bunburii, recognized in the Westphalian D and the cantabrica Biozone in the Stephanian of Europe, are also present in the Pictou Group of Sydney Coalfield, Nova Scotia as discussed by the authors.

XXXIII.—The Sequence of Floras in the Upper Carboniferous, with special reference to South Wales

TL;DR: A. E. Trueman gave the writer a copy of Bertrand's paper, "Les Zones Vegetales du Terrain Houiller du Nord de la France" (1914, p. 208), with the suggestion that it would be interesting to find out whether the succession of plants in South Wales is similar to that of the North of France, and to determine whether Bertrands zones can be applied to the Coal Measures of South Wales as mentioned in this paper.

Observations on the Lower Carboniferous genus Pitus Witham

TL;DR: Evidence supports the view that Pitus should be classified in the Lyginopteridaceae although it was arborescent and in some respects more advanced than many of the more shrub-like Pteridosperms.
