Progress in Botany

Part of the book series: Progress in Botany/Fortschritte der Botanik ((BOTANY,volume 50))

Abstract

This review on recent progress in palaeobotanical research covers the period from 1985. It is mainly focused on fossil angiosperms and aspects of palaeobotany related to the history of the angiosperms. The fossil record of other plant groups and general aspects of palaeobotany will be included in Volume 51.
