Misidentified

[edit]

This image is clearly misidentified. It is the compound leaf of a fern or pteridosperm. --EncycloPetey 18:10, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The fossil was identified in the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Corunna, Spain.--Drow male 12:41, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Then there may have been a misidentification. Sphenophyllum have the leaflets in whorles just like Equisetum. (see Steward & Rothwell 1993 p.190) --Pharaoh han (talk) 10:20, 25 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
