Rhyniophyta - Rhyniophyta is a name sometimes used for the group of plants found in the Rhynie chert, Lagerstätte (rich fossil beds) in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. The Rhyniophyta or Rhynie flora are unusual for their excellent preservation of very early fossils of primitive vascular plants, in addition to plants with uncertain vascular traces, and non-vascular plants.
