Comment

Technically, these habitats were not really forests. Forests consist predominantly of trees, and trees are large perennial woody plants. The arborescent lycopsids that dominated most of these 'forests' had a largely non-woody main stem and had a determinate growth strategy (most grew to their full mature size, reproduced and then died). They may have looked like trees but they weren't, and this is important for understanding their underlying palaeobiology and the dynamics of the vegetation. There were times when other plant types locally dominated the forests, such as in the Late Pennsylvanian of Euramerica when tree ferns dominated, or some of the Middle Pennsylvanian mangove-like swamps when cordaites predominated. However, the lycopsids were the most characteristic and in many ways defining plants of this type of vegetation in both the Pennsylvanian of Euramerica and the Permian in China. A more neutral term would be 'Coal Swamps'. Is there any way this page could be renamed to take this into account (obviously, with some explanatory text). --CCleal (talk) 19:56, 21 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

British coal forest fossils

I'm not sure why this article contains a list of fossils limited to the coal forests of Britain. Does the article actually need this list? Should the list be modified to include fossils in non-British coal forests? Maybe the list should be removed to a separate List-class article, with just a "See also" link in the coal forest article?

Coal forests in Bulgaria?

Unreferenced and highly unlikely! I will remove if no one objects?
