		There was a rapid evolution of a range of plants including the Ginkgoales and Bennettites, as well as the dominant flora of the era; the Glossopterids.
		The Ginkgoales first appear in the early Permian fossil record (c.280Ma) and are limited today to a single species; Ginkgo biloba which has become popular in recent times for its herbal qualities.
		At their peak, the Ginkgoales were represented by approximately 16 genera which were distributed throughout many parts of the world.

	Ginkgo
		Ginkgo biloba L. The ginkgo, Ginkgo biloba, sometimes also known as the maidenhair tree, is a completely unique tree in the world today.
		It has no known close relatives, existing within its own class, the Ginkgoopsida (order Ginkgoales, family Ginkgoaceae, genus Ginkgo).
		The Ginkgopsida is now usually placed in the division Ginkgophyta.

	Ginkgo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba), frequently misspelled as "Gingko", and sometimes known as the Maidenhair Tree, is a unique tree with no close living relatives.
		It is classified in its own division, the Ginkgophyta, comprising the single class Ginkgoopsida, order Ginkgoales, family Ginkgoaceae, genus Ginkgo and just the one species.
		It is one of the best known examples of a living fossil.

	Introduction to the Ginkgoales
		The Ginkgoales are a group of gymnosperms that date back to the Permian.
		During the middle Jurassic, the Ginkgoales experienced a great increase in species and reached their maximum diversity during the Cretaceous with several species identifiable in what is now Asia, Europe and North America.
		Most images in the Ginkgoales exhibit provided courtesy Virtual Foliage at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, and by Nan Crystal Arens.

	Systematics of the Ginkgoales (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		Still others think that the Ginkgoales belong to a larger group with cycads, Peltaspermum and Callistophytales, variously arranged as a paraphyletic group below the platysperms.
		The reason why botanists have this much trouble placing the Ginkgoales is because ginkgoes have reproductive structures similar to that of the cycads and vegetative morphology of the conifers.
		Ginkgo seeds : Like cycads, the seeds of Ginkgo are borne on highly modified leaves, whereas the seeds of conifers grow attached to modified branch systems.

	GINKGO BILOBA -The Ginkgo Pages- Fossils
		Ginkgoales is a group of gymnosperms composed of the family Ginkgoaceae traditionally described as consisting of six “families” and possibly 19 genera, for instance Baiera, Ginkgoites, Ginkgoidium, Ginkgo, Arctobaiera, Sphenobaiera, Windwardia, Trichopitys.
		The Ginkgoales are so isolated evolutionarily that efforts to establish its closest extant sister group have remained controversial.
		Nevertheless, there is a growing belief, supported by genetic research, that cycads are the most plausible closest living relative (both have flagellated motile sperm and pollen tubes) rather than conifers.

		The Ginkgoales were once a large group of gymnosperms, now reduced to a single species; Ginkgo biloba.
		Ginkgos are sometimes referred to as "maidenhair trees" for their superficial foliar resemblance to the maidenhair fern (Adiantum spp.) and sometimes called "livig fossils" for the close resemblance of Ginkgo biloba to fossilised extinct species.
		Compared to the photo of G. biloba, it can be clearly seen how the leaves varied between the Ginkgoales.

	Vascular Plant Family Nomenclature: Fate of Suprageneric Proposals at the Nomenclature Session
		1897) is not to be accepted as "Ginkgoales Tiegh.", because as used by Tieghem the name has a French rather than a Latin termination.
		The last example clearly is of concern as may be seen by the Rapporteurs' comments, but the point of adding the example is to make clear that even if the termination seemingly is given correctly, it may not be intended to be a latinized word.
		The Rapporteurs' suggest that adoption of this principle would "lead to devalidation of many names of families and orders published in English texts." This would be true if the name is given as "ginkgoales" rather than "Ginkgoales" and there is evidence from the context that the author is using such words as common names.
