摘要
Anomozamites haifanggouensis (Kimura et al.) Zheng et Zhang comb. nov. is a characteristic Bennettitalean plant in Middle Jurassic flora. Only one specimen was collected from Haifanggou Formation (Middle Jurassic) in Daohugou village, Shantou town, Ningcheng County, Nei Mongol Autonomous Region, China. The stem of plant is slender and repeatedly branches as a dichasial system with a fertile shoot in the fork, forming equal and widely divergent branches, on the branches born with the fronds of Anomozamites type. Its reproductive organs consists of some microsporophylls and a few of the bracteoid small leaves (or receptacular leaves). Some scattered bracteoid leaves and microsporophylls were formerly considered by Pan as dicots. Since then, they were proposed to be a non-committal genus Pankuangia and described them as P. haifanggouensis by Kimura et al. In this study, we discover that these bracteoid small leaves and microsporophylls should be of Anomozamites. This discovery provides strong evidence for the 'Pankuangia' determination of the taxonomical position.
海房沟异羽叶的新联合 (Anomozamiteshaifanggouensis (Kimuraetal.)comb .nov .)是辽西和内蒙古东部中侏罗统海房沟组一种特有的本内苏铁类植物。仅发现一块标本 (正、反面印痕 )。标本上保存 3枚营养羽叶 ,它们同几个苞片状的小叶和一些小孢子叶联合在一起 ,但球果的雌蕊群部分未被保存。标本被收集于内蒙古东部的宁城县山头乡道虎村附近 ,产于中侏罗统海房沟组。以往在辽西葫芦岛市的南票和白马石乡上三角城等地的同一层位中也曾发现过很多分散保存的苞片状小叶和相似的小孢子叶。它们最初被潘广 ( 1983)认为是一种双子叶的半被子植物 (Cycadicotis) ,并将小孢子叶视为“具皱纹的雌性种囊”。后来 ,又经Kimura等 ( 1994 )详细研究 ,因未找到任何与被子植物有关的证据 ,将它们归入一个分类位置不明的形态属Pankuangia ,并被描述在P .haifanggouensis种名之下。研究结果表明 ,本文中被研究的标本是同本内苏铁类的Anomozamites异羽叶相连 。
