Aneurophyton
Aneurophyton is a genus of extinct vascular plants that belong to the Aneurophytales, a class of progymnosperms. The most well-known species within the genus are A. germanicum and A. doui, while a third probable species, A. olnense, has also been described. Aneurophyton is primarily known from multiple occurrence records of A. germanicum and A. doui which occur in Middle Devonian and Upper Devonian (late Eifelian to Famennian) outcrops in Belgium, China (in the western part of Dzungaria), Germany, and the United States (New York).
