The Jehol Biota, an Early Cretaceous terrestrial Lagerstätte: new discoveries and implications (2014, background): “Since then, several new taxa have been reported, including the basal angiosperms Archaeofructus and Sinocarpus [108–112].”
Pteridosperms are the backbone of seed-plant phylogeny1 (2006, methodology): “We also treated as supplementary taxa the controversial fossil angiosperms Archaefructus (Sun et al. 1998, 2001, 2003), as reinterpreted by Friis et al. (2003), and Sinocarpus (Leng and Friis 2003).”
Early Cretaceous Archaefructus eoflora sp. nov. with Bisexual Flowers from Beipiao, Western Liaoning, China (2004, background): “More recently, the fossil angiospermous infructescence Synocarpus from the same Yixian Formation in the same region was considered to be a representative of eudicots, but the fruits have no remnants of stamens and thus appear to be produced by unisexual flowers (Leng and Friis, 2003).”
Evolutionary radiation of the Jehol Biota: chronological and ecological perspectives (2006, background): “Sinocarpus decussatus gen. et sp. nov., a new angiosperm with basally syncarpous fruits from the Yixian Formation of Northeast China.”
