Stockey, R.A., Rothwell, G.W., Nishida, H.
The occurrence of numerous anatomically preserved specimens of an extinct filicalean fern in the middle Eocene Princeton chert from southern British Columbia, Canada, provides the basis for characterizing a new genus and species of the Athyriaceae. Fossils include narrow horizontal rhizomes with...

Cevallos-Ferriz, S., Stockey, R.A.
Some of the most conspicuous fruit and seed remains from the Middle Eocene Princeton chert locality (Allenby Formation) are assignable to the Araceae. Several thousand campylotropous, reniform, spiny seeds 2.5-3.2 mm long x 1.8-2.3 mm wide have been found dispersed in the chert. Two fruits, each...

Stockey, R.A., Osborn J.M., Phipps, C.J.
Anatomically preserved pollen cones are described from the Middle Eocene Princeton chert of British Columbia, Canada. Cones are ellipsoidal; range from 2.8 to 6.9 mm in length, 1.6 to 3.5 mm in diameter; and are often subtended by scale leaves. Cone axes contain longitudinally oriented, cortical...

Stockey, R.A., Rothwell, G.W., Hernandez-Castillo, G.R., Mapes, G.
A new plant concept for the extinct conifer species Emporia lockardii (Mapes&Rothwell) Mapes&Rothwell (Emporiaceae) is developed from fossils collected at the Late Pennsylvanian Hamilton Quarry, Kansas. Emporia lockardii has lateral plagiotropic branches with simple and forked leaves, simple...
