Foozia minuta Gerrienne, 1992 |
Foozia was a genus of vascular Emsian (Lower Devonian) land plant with a main axis and a number of branches that sub-divide at most once. Some of these bear oval to semicircular sporangia containing Dibolisporites echinaceus, whereas the sterile branches may represent an early foray into leaf-formation. The only known fossils herald from Belgium. It is currently unclassified.
