Extinct genus of conifers
Brachyphyllum (meaning "short leaf") is a
form genus of fossil coniferous plant foliage. Plants of the genus have been variously assigned to several different conifer groups including
Araucariaceae and
Cheirolepidiaceae .
[4] They are known from around the globe from the
Late Carboniferous to the
Late Cretaceous periods.
[1] B. sattlerae was named after the fictional
palaebotanist
Ellie Sattler from the
Jurassic Park franchise.
