Description: | Loch Humphrey Burn, [about halfway between Loch Humphrey and the Greenside reservoir, Kilpatrick Hills], (Dumbartonshire), [Strathclyde], [Scotland] beds under Clyde Plateau Lavas, Calciferous Sandstone Series, [Carboniferous (Lower)] Pb2696 is also supposed to be part of the 'type' material. Twig bearing parts of two sporophylls with bunches of large sporangia. Heterosporous. Stem with secondary wood of a gymnospermous type. There is a great deal of confusion surrounding the parts of this specimen - all the more unsatisfying because part Pb3320a is the type specimen. In addition there are four pieces marked 3320/1-4- they were not listed as being on loan to Andrew Scott, but 'a' 'b' and 'c' were passed on to him after their return from CB Beck of Michigan. There is no trace of parts 'b' and 'c', but it does not seem impossible that they have been transformed into parts 1-4 and further slides. Returned from loan to Andrew Scott on 23/10/97. Only a-c mentioned in Main Catalogue margin. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | PLANTTRACH : PROGYMNOP : PLANTFRUIT : FOSSIL : : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
