Glossopteris is the largest and best-known genus of the extinct order of seed ferns known as Glossopteridales. Glossopteris was a woody, seed-bearing shrub or tree, up to 30 meters (98 ft) tall.
They arose in the Southern Hemisphere around the beginning of the Permian Period (299 million years ago) and become the dominant elements of the southern flora through the rest of the Permian but disappeared in almost all places at the end of the Permian (251 million years ago).
