''Banksieaeidites'' is a plant genus that encompasses fossil pollen that can be attributed to the Proteaceae tribe Banksieae, but cannot be attributed to a genus. It was published in 1950 by Isabel Cookson and Suzanna Duigan, on the grounds that the two then-members of Banksieae, ''Banksia'' and ''Dryandra'', cannot be distinguished by the pollen. Since then, ''Banksia'' and ''Dryandra'' have been further grouped into subtribe Banksiinae, and another subtribe, Musgraveinae, erected to contain two new genera. The correct interpretation for ''Banksieaeidites'' does not appear to have been clarified since then, but treatment of the analogous genus for fossil leaves, ''Banksieaephyllum'', is no longer consistent, with some botanists holding that it is still defined in terms of Banksieae, while others now treat it as defined in terms of Banksiinae. ''Dryandra'' has now been transferred into ''Banksia''. Although as yet undetermined, the latter interpretation would result in ''Banksieaeidites'' becoming a nomenclatural synonym of ''Banksia''. Species include: * ''Banksieaeidites arcuatus'' * ''Banksieaeidites elongatus'' * ''Banksieaeidites minimus'' ==See also== * ''Banksieaephyllum'', a genus for specimens of organically preserved fossil leaves that can be attributed to subtribe Banksiinae, but not to a genus. * ''Banksieaeformis'', a genus for fossil leaves with the same architecture as ''Banksieaephyllum'', but without organic detail; like ''Banksieaephyllum'', these can be attributed to subtribe Banksiinae, but not to a genus. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Banksieaeidites」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
