Aberlemnia is an extinct genus of early land plants from the Early Devonian, about 420 to 390 million years ago, known from leafless spore-bearing stems and no living members. It is not a plant that can be grown, so care fields are not applicable.

Family
Cooksoniaceae (Cooksoni family)

About

Aberlemnia is a genus of extinct vascular plants of the Early Devonian (around 420 to 390 million years ago), which consisted of leafless stems with terminal spore-forming organs (sporangia). Fossils found in Scotland were initially described as Cooksonia caledonica. A later review, which included new and more complete fossils from Brazil, showed that the specimens did not fit the circumscription of the genus Cooksonia; accordingly a new genus Aberlemnia was proposed.
