Franhueberia is an extinct monospecific genus of vascular land plants described from Early Devonian (mid to late Emsian) outcrops of the Battery Point Formation along the south shore of Gaspé Bay, Quebec, Canada.
[3] Franhueberia gerriennei is preserved as a cellular permineralization within a single cobble and consists of a small axis with a centrarch protostele.
Wood or secondary xylem with P-type cell walls have also been observed in the slightly older (late Pragian-earliest Emsian) Armoricaphyton chateaupannense from western France and in an unnamed basal euphyllophyte from late Emsian outcrops of the Campbellton Formation in New Brunswick, Canada.
[3] The genus is named for Francis Hueber, the paleobotanist who collected the specimens at Gaspé Bay, while the specific epithet was chosen in recognition of the numerous contributions to Early Devonian paleobotany by Philippe Gerrienne of the University of Liège, Belgium.
[3] While the pattern of branching and fertile structures such as sporangia are unknown, Franhueberia is most similar anatomically to other basal euphyllophytes like Armoricaphyton chateaupannense and Psilophyton dawsonii.
