Abstract

The article reports on the proposal to conserve the name Sphenozamites or the fossil Cycadophyta. It cites that Brongniart has created Otozamites sect. Sphenozamites for cycadophyte leaves, and stated that this taxon might ever be raised to generic rank. Palaeobotanists treated S. beanie as Otozamites species. It notes that the concept of Wesley on Sphenozamites is almost universally accepted nowadays. Moreover, Gea Zijlstra and colleagues validate a species combination in Apoldia.
