	Paleobotany - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paleobotany Information from Wikipedia on this branch of paleontology which deals with the recovery and identification of plant remains from geological contexts. It includes information on plant fossils and the groups of plants that have left fossilized remains.
	Paleobotany Type Catalog and Collection - http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/collections/plant.html A searchable catalog containing information on type specimens of fossil plants, algae and fungi.
