This article records new taxa of plants that were described during the year 2014, as well as other significant discoveries and events related to paleobotany that occurred in the year 2014.
A dasycladalean alga belonging to the family Triploporellaceae. Originally described as a species of Probolocupsis; Senowbari-Daryan (2018) transferred this species to the genus Naybandoporella.[6]
A member of Osmundaceae. Originally described as a species of Ashicaulis; transferred to the genus Claytosmunda by Bomfleur, Grimm & McLoughlin (2017).[10]
A member of Osmundaceae. Originally described as a species of Ashicaulis; transferred to the genus Claytosmunda by Bomfleur, Grimm & McLoughlin (2017).[10]
A member of Coniferopsida of uncertain phylogenetic placement, might be a member of Voltziales, Cordaitales or Dicranophyllales.[39] The type species is Giblingodendron nudifolia; genus also includes Giblingodendron aridus.
A member of Lauraceae. Described by Khan & Bera (2014) as a species of Persea, considered by the authors to be most similar to the species Persea parviflora Spreng.[44]
A member of Lauraceae. Described by Khan & Bera (2014) as a species of Persea,[44] though the authors consider it most similar to the species Persea glaucescens (Nees) D.G. Long, assigned by other authors to the genus Machilus.
