Canrightiopsis undetermined

Description

Canrightiopsis sp.

R e m a r k s. The three species of Canrightiopsis described from the Early Cretaceous of Portugal are closely similar to each other in morphology and in the organization of the fruits and seeds. The three species are mainly distinguished by details of their seed coat (Friis et al. 2015a). The Catefica mesofossil flora includes several Canrightiopsis fruits that cannot be placed securely in any of the existing species due to the lack of information on their internal structure. These seeds are collectively referred to here as Canrightiopsis sp.
