	Wollemia nobilis description
		The cone scales have a long, distal spine reminiscent of Araucaria section Eutacta, but the winged seeds that are ontogenetically free from, and shed independently from, the cone scale are similar to Agathis.
		Pollen of Wollemia is indistinguishable from the fossil pollen form-genus Dilwynites, which has a fossil record extending back to the Late Cretaceous in Australia and New Zealand.
		Wollemia nobilis, a new living Australian genus and species in the Araucariaceae.

	Wollemia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Wollemia nobilis is a remarkable coniferous tree that was discovered in 1994 in a remote series of narrow, steep-sided sandstone gorges in a mild temperate-zone rainforest wilderness area of the Wollemi National Park in New South Wales, 150 km north-west of the Australian city of Sydney.
		Wollemia is an evergreen tree reaching 25-40 m tall.
		Fossils resembling Wollemia and possibly related to it are widespread in Australia, New Zealand and Antarctica, but Wollemia nobilis is the sole living member of its genus.

	Mycorrhiza Literature Exchange
		The discovery in 1994 of wollemia nobilis, a new conifer genus and species of Araucariaceae, attracted media and public attention that was probably unprecedented for a botanical discovery.
		Wollemia has contributed to understanding of structures in fossil Araucariaceae and conifer-mycorrhizal associations; its survival has added to the picture of long-term regional floristic change.
		Wollemia and the southern rushes exemplify the significance of these new finds and newly discovered understanding of relationships.

		The Wollemi Pine is of considerable significance in the study of the evolutionary relationships of early flora on the Gondwana continent.
		Wollemia is a new genus in the family Araucariaceae, and although it possesses morphological characteristics from the related genera Agathis and Araucaria, it also possesses unique features (Hill 1995).

		The discovery of the Wollemi Pine in 1994 created great excitement amongst the botanical world as it was presumed to have been extinct, only known to botanists through its appearance in fossils dating back 91 million years and then disappearing around two million years ago.
		Wollemia – This is the Latin form of the word Wollemi, the name of the National Park in New South Wales where the trees is found.

		In 1994, while exploring a canyon in the Blue Mountains northwest of Sydney, Australia, a sharp-eyed young park ranger found a tree he didn't recognize.
		In December of that year the world was introduced to Wollemia nobilis, known from fossils as old as 90 million years and thought to be extinct for the last 2 million.
		The tree's closest cousins are in the Araucaria family: Bunya Bunya, Norfolk Island Pine, and the Monkey Puzzle Tree.

		Wollemi pine (Wollemia nobilis), one of the most ancient and rare trees in the world, has a new home at the Royal Botanical Garden, Kew.
		The oldest known fossil (the type specimen) of Wollemia dates from 90 Mya.
		The discovery of living specimens means that the genus, if not the species, has been around for at least 145 million years and possibly as long as 200 million years.

		It was eventually named Wollemia nobilis after its discoverer, David Noble.
		It is thought that this is all that remains of Wollemia nobilis.
		This tree has been called a "living fossil" because of its close resemblance and relatedness to other fossilised trees that date back to the Cretaceous and Tertiary of 100 million years ago.

		In the first grove discovered there were only 40 trees in a 5,000 square meter area—23 adults, 16 juveniles, and the largest, a fallen tree 40 meters long with a girth of three meters.

		Wollemi Pine (Wollemia nobilis) is a remarkable coniferous tree that was in 1994 in a series of narrow, steep-sided canyons in a mild temperate-zone rainforest wilderness area 150 kilometers north-west of Sydney.
		Looking at fossil remains of this family of conifers and comparing later obtained specimens of the plant proved this to be the case, and it was duly placed into the Araucariaceae somewhere between the still extant genera Agathis and Araucaria, having some characteristics of both, but also some of its own.
		Fossil remains of Wollemia are widespread in Australia, New Zealand and Antarctica, but W. nobilis is the sole living member of its genus and as such represents only one of the three genera in the family Araucariaceae.

		A new coniferous tree, Wollemi pine (Wollemia nobilis), was discovered by David Nobel, a naturalist from the Wollemi National Park and Wildlife Service in New South Wales, Australia.
		The Wollemi pine is located on wet ledges in a deep, sheltered rainforest gorge, within Wollemi N.P., 150 km of Sydney, the largest city of Australia.
		It is a living fossil, closely related to the Dilwynites granulatus Harris, known from the late Cretaceous and Tertiary vegetation in Australia and adjacent areas.

		The most common type had an un-araucarian branch and root structure.) Wollemia is a member of the araucaria family in good standing, although different enough to deserve its own genus.
		There are precedents: the gingko, kept alive for centuries in temple gardens; the franklinia tree, found by John and William Bartram in the Georgia wilderness in 1765 and never seen there again, although it survives in gardens and parks.
		It tolerates temperatures from 23 to 113 degrees Fahrenheit, and is suitable for USDA climate zones 7 through 11; in colder zones, it would need to stay in a pot and move indoors in winter.

	Araucariaceae description
		Phylogenetic trees for these analyses agree that all three genera are monophyletic and that Wollemia is the most primitive of the three.
		Conversely, most of the remaining species of the family are tropical and are not widely known outside of their native ranges.
		In many cases those ranges are relatively large and the trees fairly easy to locate, but several taxa including Wollemia nobilis, several New Caledonian species of Araucaria, and several Malesian species of Agathis are narrow endemics, threatened by habitat loss.

	Wollemia nobilis estmals in Italien
		Der neu entdeckte Nadelbaum aus Ostaustralien (New South Wales) wird hier in den Gärten von Schloss Trauttmansdorff in Meran zum ersten Mal in Italien der Öffentlichkeit präsentiert.
		Als vor etwa 65 Millionen Jahren die Dinosaurier auf der Erde ausstarben, sank auch der Bestand der Vorfahren der Wollemia nobilis stark.
		Wollemia nobilis wurde im Jahre 1994 zufällig, nach jahrtausendelanger Isolation, in den unwegsamen Felsschluchten Ostaustraliens entdeckt; der Name des Baumes bezieht sich dabei sowohl auf den einheimischen Namen des Gebietes, Wollemi, als auch auf den Namen des Entdeckers, des Forstbeamten David Noble.
