<p>This week we're taking a closer look at a giant grandpa that has captured the hearts, minds, and brains of tons paleobotanists- Psaronius, a now-extinct giant tree fern that's still teaching us a ton about what ancient ecosystems likely looked like. If you like oldies but goodies, fun fern facts, and doodles lovingly drawn by a researcher who REALLY wants to help you see what they are talking about, you'll love this one. </p><p>Sources: </p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marattiaceae">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marattiaceae</a> good start to tenenbaum fern family deep dive</p><p><a href="https://ucmp.berkeley.edu/IB181/VPL/SpheFe/SpheFe4.html">https://ucmp.berkeley.edu/IB181/VPL/SpheFe/SpheFe4.html</a></p><p><a href="https://steurh.home.xs4all.nl/engpsar/epsaron.html#wortel">https://steurh.home.xs4all.nl/engpsar/epsaron.html#wortel</a></p><p><a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0034666799000330">https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0034666799000330</a></p><p><a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0034666721000026">https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0034666721000026</a></p><p><a href="https://library.isgs.illinois.edu/Pubs/pdfs/circulars/c492.pdf">https://library.isgs.illinois.edu/Pubs/pdfs/circulars/c492.pdf</a> the leaf scarring source!
