HELP INDEX NEXT UP PREVIOUS FEEDBACK ATG Subphylum Lycopsida
Like Whisk Ferns and Horsetails, Lycopods grew in great profusion in the distant past. The species that survive today are small but 300 million years ago some Lycopods were gigantic trees. Their remains form a large part of the coal deposits that we mine today. This group includes the Clubmosses (Lycopodiales) and the Spikemosses (Selaginellales) which, despite their common names, are not Mosses. [CH] {FG}
