Tags: Flowering Plant.

Pannaulika triassica is a prehistoric plant species assigned to a small incomplete leaf and two flowers. It was found in Carnian rock. The incomplete dicot-like leaf fragment measuring 32 mm in length has a vein structure which suggests the plant to be an angiosperm but it also shares some characteristics with ferns. Possibly this means that primitive angiosperms from the Jurassic period evolved in tropic highlands.
