Book Description
The plant fossil record indicates that the genus Metasequoia was widely distributed throughout the Northern Hemisphere from the early Late Cretaceous to the Plio-Pleistocene. Today the genus has shrunk to one species with approximately 5,000 mature individuals in southeastern China’s Xiahoe Valley. This book distills the current understanding of the biology, ecology and physiology of fossil and living Metasequoia, current research directions and problems that remain unresolved.

A Revision of Fossil Sequoia and Taxodium in Western North America Based on the Recent Discovery of Metasequoia
Author: Ralph Works Chaney
Publisher: American Philosophical Society
ISBN: 9781422377055
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
The recently discovered redwood of China, "Metasequoia glyptostroboides" Hu & Cheng, shows close relationship to two North American trees, the coast redwood, "Sequoia sempervirens" Endlicher of the western U.S., & the swamp cypress, "Taxodium distichum" Richard of the Southeastern U.S. Foliage & cones of these living trees provide characters by which the three genera may be readily distinguished. But for nearly a century there has been confusion in the recognition of fossil specimens. The author is now able to distinguish the fossil foliage & cones of all three genera, & to assign to Metasequoia many specimens which have previously been identified as Sequoia & Taxodium. Illustrations.
