240 m.y. ago A large ridge emerged that divided Pangea into two continents: to the north Laurasia, which encompassed North America, Greenland and Eurasia; to the south Gondwana, formed by South America, Africa, Antarctica, Oceania and India.
Glossopteris is an exclusive fossil from the Gondwana continent, in which in most cases only the leaves are usually found, which are entire and have a reticular vein with a clearly developed central nerve and were attached to the end of the trunk forming a dense tuft with a short petiole.
