Taxonomic remark From Feng et al., 2010: Wray (1967) described Paraepiphyton from the Frasnian and Famennian of the Canning Basin. Paraepiphyton was placed in synonymy with Epiphyton Bornemann by Riding and Wray (1972). Nonetheless, Paraepiphyton may be distinguished from Epiphyton by its small size and less regular branching. Until there is more clarity concerning circumscription of the numerous species of Epiphyton, and of similar taxa, it remains useful to recognize Paraepiphyton. [details]
