Conago MILLER et HICKEY, 2010
T y p e: Conago tonsifera MILLER et HICKEY, 2010, p. 77, pl. 39, fig. A–C.
D i s c u s s i o n. This genus was introduced by Miller and Hickey (2010) for accommodation of ovuliferous cones of uncertain systematic affinity. It was designated on purpose, to substitute the genus Conites STERNBERG typified by Conites bucklandii STERNBERG from the Jurassic Stonesfield in Great Britain (Sternberg 1823). C. bucklandii is a part of a stem assigned to the Bennettitales ( Watson and Sincock 1992, J. Kvaček and Straková 1997), and therefore it cannot be used for accommodation of ovuliferous cones of conifers any longer. The genus Conites was newly emended by Cleal and Rees (2003).
