Forms: 1800s– paleophytic (chiefly U.S.), 1900s– palaeophytic. Also with lower-case initial.

Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French paléophytique.

Etymology: < French paléophytique (G. Saporta Le monde des plantes avant l'apparition de l'homme (1879) ii. 160) < paléo- palaeo- comb. form + phyt- (see phyto- comb. form) + -ique -ic suffix, after paléozoïque Palaeozoic adj. Compare Mesophytic adj.¹

Palaeontology.

A. adj.

Originally: designating a division of geological time during which land plants evolved and lower vascular plants (ferns, horsetails, cycads, etc.) became dominant. Now also: designating or relating to the type of plant or vegetation characteristic of this time (though overlapping in occurrence with the later Mesophytic flora). Cf. Mesophytic adj.¹The extent of the Palaeophytic era is variously conceived by different authors. Saporta included the Devonian, Carboniferous, and Permian periods; other have extended the era back to the Cambrian (corresponding more closely with the Palaeozoic) or forward to the mid Triassic, or restricted it to parts of the Carboniferous and Permian periods.

1880 Pop. Sci. Monthly Feb. 452 Saporta divides the world of fossil vegetables into four great periods:..2. The Carboniferous or paleophytic, comprehending the Devonian, Carboniferous, and Permian.

1916 F. E. Clements Plant Succession xii. 288 In order to harmonize the current classification with the new one, the terms Eozoic, Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Cenozoic were modified into Eophytic, Paleophytic, Mesophytic, and Cenophytic. It was then discovered that Saporta..had already distinguished these four vegetation periods.

1959 H. J. Lam in W. B. Turrill Vistas in Bot. i. 49 There are indications in the fossil record that this is so, e.g. in the palaeophytic fern Archaeopteris.

1990 Ann. Rev. Ecol. & Systematics 21 75 As climates dried out following the end of the Permo-Carboniferous glaciation, conifers began speading into lowlands replacing pteridosperms and pteridophytes and producing mixed assemblages of Paleophytic and Mesophytic plants.

Chiefly with the. The Palaeophytic era.

1942 J. H. F. Umbgrove Pulse of Earth viii. 147 The boundary between the Paleozoic and the Mesozoic lies on a higher stratigraphic level than that between the Paleophytic and Mesophytic.

1974 Ann. Missouri Bot. Garden 61 219 The broad outlines of the modernization of vascular plant floras at the Paleophytic–Mesophytic interface were known twenty years ago.

1993 Palaeogeogr., Palaeoclimatol., Palaeoecol. 104 160/1 The Palaeophytic, here redefined, disrupts Gothan and Weyland's (1954) Palaeophytic through repositioning of its lower boundary to exclude the Precambrian, Cambrian and pre-Llanvirn Ordovician.
