Krithodeophyton is a genus of lower Devonian plant with branching axes. It is considered to be a barinophyte.[1][2]

Phylogeny

The phylogenetic position of the barinophytes remains disputed. Kenrick and Crane in 1997 called the group the Barinophytaceae and placed it in their Sawdoniales, well nested within the zosterophylls.[3] Taylor et al. in 2009 considered the barinophytes to be possible lycopsids rather than zosterophylls.[4] Hao and Xue in 2013 suggested that they were not lycopsids, instead falling between this group and the euphyllophytes.[5]

gollark: If your WAV file is the original one from whoever made the song, it might sound better. If your WAV file is just generated from the MP3, it will be identical to playing back the MP3 normally.

gollark: Converting to JPEG has dropped information, information which the design of JPEG treats as relatively unimportant to human perception, and if you convert back to lossless you'll just store the same information as the JPEG retains less efficiently.

gollark: JPEGs are lossy too. What happens if you take a poor-quality JPEG of a meme and convert it back to PNG (which is lossless)? Does it look better? No.

gollark: They don't understand how lossy compression works.

gollark: It isn't the original WAV.
