Name: Lepidodendron Aculeatum
Period: Carboniferous to the late Triassic. 360 to 205 million years ago.
Notes: Extinct tree-sized, tree-like plant from the Carboniferous Period to the late Triassic. Though superficially it resembled a tree, this plant was most closely related to modern quillworts, meaning it wasn't a true tree. As it grew its central stem eventually split into exactly branches, and then each branch further split into more as the plant continued to mature; further branching occurred until the plant reached full maturity. At the ends of its branches were oval-shaped cones. As the plant grew it shed its lower leaves which resulted in the scar-pattern found on its stem and branches giving it its name of "scale tree". Fossils have been found extensively throughout the world suggesting it had a global reach.

EVERYPlant has a mission ... which is to model every plant species in the world (plus some extinct, fantasy and sci-fi variations as well)! Okay, maybe not EVERY plant! If you don't see it in our store, please get in contact; we have thousands of species on file awaiting upload.
