EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate beauty of Cyperites bicarinatus, also known as tree clubmoss, a plant species dating back to the late Carboniferous period. Discovered at Kilmersdon, near Radstock in Somerset, England, this fossilized specimen measures about 15 cms and provides a fascinating glimpse into prehistoric botanical life.
The leaves of this ancient plant are perfectly preserved against a black background, showcasing their delicate details and unique structure. The image was captured by the late great British paleobotanist Dr. Paul Kenrick and is part of the collection at Mary Evans Prints Online.
As one of the earliest forms of lycopods in existence, Cyperites bicarinatus belongs to the Lycopodiopsida class within the Phanerozoic eon. Its discovery sheds light on the evolution of plant life during a time when Europe was vastly different from what we know today.
Dr. Paul Davis's meticulous research and documentation have contributed significantly to our understanding of prehistoric flora, making this print not only visually striking but also scientifically valuable. It serves as a reminder of Earth's rich history and the incredible diversity that has existed over millions of years.
