Cycadeoidaceae

Cycadeoidaceae is a family of bennettitalean plants which flourished in the Mesozoic era. Two genera, Cycadeoidea and Monanthesia, are currently recognised though most species are poorly known.^[1] They had a similar morphology to cycads, with thick, branchless trunks covered in scale leaves.
