my first paper of the year (and my first ever single author paper) has been finally published! Do you work on fossil plants? Do you feel that your phylogenies are too uncertain? Don't fear uncertainty, EMBRACE IT! 🧪🌾🌱

Embracing uncertainty: The way forward in plant fossil phylogenetics
Although molecular phylogenetics remains the most widely used method of inferring the evolutionary history of living groups, the last decade has seen a renewed interest in morphological phylogenetics....

Speaking of fossils, I don't feel like I've found my Paleo "tribe" here yet.
#FossilFriday
and
#TrilobiteTuesday
don't seem to get the same reach as they did on the dead bird site. Who should I be following? Should I post more of my collection? My Paleo

Up next is
#Ginkgoites
#patagonica
, a species from the
#Eocene
of Argentina. This species had leaves with 2-8 narrow round-tiped lobes and is the youngest

#Ginkgoites
#waarensis
is a Cenomanian species from the Chatham Islands of New Zealand. During the
#Cretaceous
, these islands were connected to Antarctica and would have experienced months of darkness during the winter.

Sticking to the southern hemisphere, here's
#Ginkgoites
#villardeseoanii
, an interesting species from the latest
#Cretaceous
of Argentina. It's one of the more recently described Ginkgoites species and has lobes with characteristics flat and notched tips.

Today's species is
#Ginkgoites
#myrioneurus
; it hails from the Early
#Cretaceous
Muling Formation of China and is distinct in having many narrow round-tiped lobes with high vein density. It has also been associated with
#Ginkgo-like
long and short shoots.

Today's species is one of the most unique I've come across:
#Ginkgoites
#houlinhensis
(initially ascribed to
#Ginkgo
) was an East Asian
#desert
, or arid environment adapted
#plant
which has
#xerophytic
adaptations such as sunken stomata and hairs on the leaf surface.

I'm not sure how long I'll keep this up for, but I want to do a series highlighting each species of Ginkgoales I restored. First up is
#Ginkgoites
#pluripartita
. This was a very widespread species, found across the northern hemisphere in Early Cretaceous rocks. 1/2

Before seeds evolved plants had to invent 'males' and 'females' (heterospory). But how did they do it? Intrigued? I have a great PhD opporunity as part of the MIBTP DTP at Birmingham to study this using homosporous ferns.
