Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of the Palaeozoic Plants: In the Department of Geology and Palaeontology, British Museum (Natural History) This Catalogue was commenced by Mr. Kidston in February, 1883 (nearly a year before the Gallery which contains the Fossil Plant Collection had been opened to the public). In order to prepare the present work the author first made a most careful examination of the entire collection of Palaeozoic plants in the Department, and provisionally named all the specimens which passed through his hands. He also visited and studied the collections of Mr. J. McMartrie at Radstock; those in the Museums of Bath, Bristol, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Newcastle; the Museum of Practical Geology, Jennyn Street, and many other public and private cabinets. He has further devoted much time in 1884-85, to collecting specimens of fossil plants from the classical localities in Gloucestershire, Somerset, Monmouthshire and elsewhere, in order to observe the mode of occurrence of the various coal-plants in situ. As a result Mr. Kidston has enriched the collection by the addition of nearly 250 valuable specimens. In this task he has been aided by the Royal Society's Government Grants Fund. The work of naming and cataloguing so large a collection has occupied a much longer time than was originally contemplated; but it is hoped that the Catalogue may prove useful to the student of Fossil Plants and be the means of stimulating other workers to take up a subject which offers to the enquirer so interesting a field of study and promises so large an opportunity for the development of original research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume of the GCR series, one of two dealing with palaeobotany, covers the first 200 million years of the history of land plant evolution, as represented by the palaeobotany GCR site network of Great Britain. It demonstrates how the main facets of land plant evolution can be demonstrated at sites in Britain, and how the fossil record can be of value as an evolutionary and environmental indicator of the geological past.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Often regarded as the 'Cinderella' of palaeontological studies, palaeobotany has a history that contains some fascinating insights into scientific endeavour, especially by palaeontologists who were perusing a personal interest rather than a career. The problems of maintaining research facilities in universities, especially in the modern era, are described and reveal a noticeable absence of a national UK strategy to preserve centres of excellence in an avowedly specialist area. Accounts of some of the pioneers demonstrate the importance of collaboration between taxonomists and illustrators. The importance of palaeobotany in the rise of geoconservation is outlined, as well as the significant and influential role of women in the discipline. Although this volume has a predominantly UK focus, two very interesting studies outline the history of palaeobotanical work in Argentina and China.
