Archaeosporites rhyniensis gen. et sp. nov. (Glomeromycota, Archaeosporaceae), from the Lower Devonian Rhynie chert a fungal lineage morphologically unchanged from more than 400 million years
(2020)Background and Aims: Structurally preserved arbuscular mycorrhizas from the Lower Devonian Rhynie chert represent core fossil evidence of the evolutionary history of mycorrhizal systems. Moreover, Rhynie chert fossils of ... -

Frankbaronia velata nov. sp., a putative peronosporomycete oogonium containing multiple oospores from the Lower Devonian Rhynie chert
(2013)Spherical to pyriform microfossils containing multiple smooth-walled spherules from the Lower Devonian Rhynie chert are described as oogonia of a new fossil peronosporomycete based on congruencies in basic morphology to ... -
Fungal sporulation in a Permian plant fragment from Antarctica. Bulletin of Geosciences
(2018)Documented evidence of fungi from the Permian of Antarctica mostly consists of dispersed remains that do not provide the whole complement of diagnostic features necessary to determine even broad systematic affinities. A ... -
Microfossils from the Lower Devonian Rhynie Chert with suggested affinities to the Peronosporomycetes
(2012)A conspicuous silicified microfossil, Frankbaronia polyspora n. gen. n. sp., occurs in plant litter and as an inhabitant of microbial mats from the Lower Devonian Rhynie chert, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Specimens are ... -
Morphological diversity of fungal reproductive units in the Lower Devonian Rhynie and Windyfield cherts, Scotland: A new species of the genus Windipila
(2020)The Lower Devonian Rhynie and Windyfield cherts from Scotland contain a remarkable diversity of microscopic fungal propagules and reproductive units; however, only relatively few of these fossils are described. One of them ... -
Rhizophydites matryoshkae gen. et sp. nov. (fossil Chytridiomycota) on spores of the early land plant Horneophyton lignieri from the Lower Devonian Rhynie chert
(2021)Premise of research: As our understanding of the importance of fungi in ecosystems today increases, we are still in the early stages of appreciating their roles in the past. The famous Early Devonian Rhynie chert contains ...
