These include at least five morphotypes of Glossopteris leaves and the glossopterid ovuliferous organs Lidgettonia africana, Rigbya arberioides and Plumsteadia gibbosa, and the glossopterid polleniferous organ Eretmonia natalensis.
obliqua, salient differences between these two species are subterranean stem, oblong to long elliptic (to 35 cm) leaflets, long pedunculate (15-30 cm), polleniferous strobili, microsporophylls with microsporangia only on the abaxial surface, and wine-red to dark red-brown ovulate strobili in Z.
Although boundary-layer effects will likely be reduced for anthers and microsporangia, it seems likely that wind gusts play a strong role in pollen liberation, via agitation of shoots bearing polleniferous organs and overcoming the reduced but still-present boundary-layer effects.
