This article records new taxa of fossil plants that are scheduled to be described during the year 2015, as well as other significant discoveries and events related to paleobotany that are scheduled to occur in the year 2015.
A leptosporangiate fern of uncertain phylogenetic placement. The type species is Adiantitophyllum serratum. Possibly also including "Adiantites" lindsayoides from the Koonwarra flora in Australia.
A member of Osmundaceae. Originally described as a species of Osmunda; transferred to the genus Osmundastrum by Bomfleur, Grimm & McLoughlin (2017).[13]
A Phoenicopsis species Czekanowskiales. The name is spelled Phoenicopsis ordosensis on some pages; which is preoccupied by Phoenicopsis (Culgoweria) ordosensis (2014).
A conifer; a replacement name for "Sequoia" heterophylla (1885). Moved to Elatocladus by Kvaček (2015); however, the name was a junior homonym of Elatocladus heterophylla Halle (1913).[57]
A study on the morphology, identity and affinity of the purported Cretaceous pitcher plantArchaeamphora longicervia is published by Wong et al. (2015), who interpret the supposed pitchers as insect-induced leaf galls, and consider A. longicervia to be insect-galled leaves of the gymnosperm species Liaoningocladus boii.[70]
A member of Araceae. A new genus for "Araciphyllites" austriacus Kvaček & Herman (2005); genus also contains "Zingiberopsis" riggauensis Knobloch (1979).
A member of Smilacaceae; a replacement name for "Quercus" aspera Unger (1847) (subsequently transferred to the genus Smilax, which would make it a junior homonym of the extant Smilax aspera).
Pollen grains representing the oldest fossils of members of the family Asteraceae discovered so far are described from the Late Cretaceous of Antarctica by Barreda et al. (2015).[112]
A green alga belonging to the group Charophyta and the family Characeae; a species of Chara. A replacement name for Chara elliptica Nikolskaja (1984) (preoccupied).
