land-plant macrofossil genera and morphological traits yielded four phytogeographic units …

In an overview of the Silurian of Central Europe, it is important to realize that during this
period the study area was spread more widely over the globe than nowadays because at …

Abstract The Silurian–Devonian transition played a crucial role in the development of early
terrestrial ecosystems due to the rapid diversification of early vascular plants. However …
