Coniferophyta Plantae Flora and Fauna
Coniferophyta Plantae Flora and Fauna
Also known as Pinophyta, the conifers.
Evergreen trees or shrubs, the conifers are the largest of four divisions of the gymnosperms, a term which means 'naked seeds'. The term conifer comes from cone, a cluster of scale-like sporophylls which have pollen sacs on the lower surface.
