Name: Sigillaria Densifolia

Period: Carboniferous-Permian, 323.2-254.0 Million Years Ago

This Variation: This is a Low Poly model. A High Poly version is also available.

Notes: Extinct tree-sized lycopsids from the late Carboniferous to the early Permian Period; it had a single trunk, which in older plants often branched to a characteristic Y-shape. Very old plants may further branch. The trunk lacked wood, or had a very slender layer only, with support coming from a layer of closely packed leaf bases just below the surface of the trunk. The centre of the trunk was filled with pith and it had photosynthetic tissue on the surface, meaning that it was probably green. Long, thin leaves grew in a spiral along the trunk but persisted only near its growing tip; on lower portions of the plant, where the leaves had fallen off, characteristic polygonal leaf scars remained. It appears to have preferred the mineral soils of river floodplains and higher ground. This preference for better-drained soils may have allowed it to survive the drying of the great coal swamps that led to the extinction of many tree-sized lycopsids during the middle of the Pennsylvanian Epoch (318 to 299 million years ago). Fossils have been found in Great Britain, United States, Canada, China, Korea, Tanzania and Zimbabwe.
