Numerical comparison of extant and fossil pollen reveals South American ancestors for Embothrium in South America, and Telopea-Alloxylon and Banksia in Australia Open
A key issue in paleobotany is the geographical origin of extant lineages. Our aim was to show that, contrary to current molecular-phylogeny evidence, the ancestors of the South American Embothrium -Oreocallis (family Proteaceae, subtribe E…
