Early Devonian Spores from Central Ellesmere Island, Canadian Arctic

The Vendom Fiord Formation near the head of Cañon Fiord, central Ellesmere Island, hitherto thought to be unfossiliferous, contains mid to late Emsian trilete spores. Strata below the Vendom Fiord Formation, separated from it by an unconformity, contain a less diverse assemblage of spores that sugge...
