Today's #aGinkgoaDay is one of the less Ginkgo-like leaves. This is Eretmophyllum penalveri; it's an elliptical leaf likely belonging to the plant Nehvizdyella, which was a salt marsh adapted ginkgoalean from the Jurassic and Cretaceous of Laurasia. #paleobotany #paleoart #plants
I'm going to try and start reposting my #aGinkgoaDay again. Starting off, we're finally moving away from Ginkgo(ites):
This is #Baiera aquilonia, from the Early #Cretaceous of the Arctic. Baiera species are primarily differentiated from Ginkgoites in having fewer veins per lobe. #paleoart #plants
