Noeggerathia
''Noeggerathia'' is an extinct genus of noeggerathialean plant that lived during the Late Carboniferous and Early Permian periods. Description ''Noeggerathia'' could grow to be 3 ft, 3 in tall. It is known for its compound leaves, each possessing two rows of leaflets which composed a 12-inch frond. ''Noeggerathia'' may also have possessed a short trunk. The genus may have possessed strobili at the ends of its branches for reproductive purposes. Biseriate sporophylls existed on either side of the cones. It has been previously suggested that ''Noeggerathiostrobus'' may have been borne at the end of ''Noeggerathias stems. However, it is more likely that ''Noeggerathiostrobus'' was borne closer to the base of ''Noeggerathia''. Taxonomy ''Noeggerathia'' was named after Johann Jakob Nöggerath, a geologist from Germany. The genus was described in 1820 by Kaspar Maria von Sternberg. ''Noeggerathia'' and noeggerathialeans in general have been described as difficult to classify ...
