Konioria

Konioria was a genus of early land plant with branching axes.

[2] Known fossils are of Early Devonian age (420 to 393 million years ago).

[1] A cladogram published in 2004 by Crane et al. places Konioria in the core of a paraphyletic stem group of broadly defined "zosterophylls", basal to the lycopsids (living and extinct clubmosses and relatives).
