Abstract
The 1st occurrence in the fossil record of selected biocharacters of the vascular land plants is recorded. The successive appearance of these biocharacters documents the evolution of progressively more complex morphology and anatomy during Silurian and Devonian times.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
