Abstract
A single nearly complete leaf and several fragments in Paleogene sediments
from southern Tasmania confirm the Cenozoic presence of
Ginkgo L. in Australia. The specimens, assigned to
G. australis McCoy, add to our knowledge of probable
deciduous forms in the southern Australian Paleogene, when winter darkness at
the prevailing high latitudes made this strategy competitive.
