About this reference
Modern HRXCT study of London Clay Palaeorhodomyrtus subangulata. The paper treats the fossils as Myrtaceae and demonstrates diagnostic internal anatomy, but later literature has questioned whether the persistent calyx is compatible with Myrtaceae. Use for P3 taxonomic-placement review rather than automatic family assignment.
