here are some very detailed papers on some families by botanists for current plants such as this one: Leaf venation patterns in the genus *Saxifraga* https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Nianhe_Xia/publication/281747103_Leaf_venation_patterns_in_the_genus_Saxifraga_Saxifragaceae/links/5639690d08aed5314d2220ea/Leaf-venation-patterns-in-the-genus-Saxifraga-Saxifragaceae.pdf?origin=publication_detail but most that I found very useful as a start was from Paleobiology department at the Smithsonian institution Title *Manual of Leaf Architecture* its a manual ISBN 0-9677554-0-9 one can easily download it I thought I had saved the URL but cant find it in this pdf file its very useful I like these as a starting point [image: leaf area classification for leaf vein paleobotany.png] and [image: Leaf size compare ready figures for Paleobotany.png] and for leaf venation nomenclature see next note.... continued regards Usha di On Tue, Oct 15, 2019 at 1:25 PM ushadi <microminipho...@gmail.com> wrote: > Pankaj > So p foetida has the most stomata > I wonder why? > > good use of Idle time ...
