“The Late Triassic macroplant fossil collections from Udine Province are unique but have only been partially studied so far. Here we provide an overview of the plant fossil assemblages from the Triassic of the Udine Province, stored at the Museo Friulano di Storia Naturale in Udine and at the Museo Geologico della Carnia (Udine Province, Italy), and their potential for further research. All fossiliferous localities yielding plant fossils are presented in chronostratigraphic order, starting with the Early Triassic, an epoch from which only very few plant fragments are known to date. In contrast, the Anisian (Middle Triassic) plant fossil assemblages are quite diverse, whereas the Ladinian outcrops yielded mainly conifer shoots. The diversity and number of fossiliferous sites of the Late Triassic is outstanding. While the assemblage of Cave del Predil/Raibl, the most important historical Carnian plant fossil locality, comprises a very diverse flora, other Carnian assemblages are represented by a wide range of plant fossils but are mainly dominated by an underestimated diversity of conifers. The Norian plant fossil assemblages of the Udine Province are among the most diverse and abundant in Europe, and the Norian-Rhaetian fossils are the only plant macroremains from the Southern Alps of putative Rhaetian age so far.” see the article
