This reconstruction of the sporangia of Nothia aphylla was made
by El-Saadawyg and Lacey (1979). Nothia is a rare plant in the Rhynie
Chert and it is not yet completely understood.
Kidston and Lang thought the sporangia to belong to the plant
Asteroxylon, but it turned out to be a new plant.
The stem of Nothia shows a peculiar wavy surface.
In my slides the plant did not occur. The photos are from an exchanged
slide.
In the slides of Groningen are a few
sporangia and decayed
stems.
