Taxonomic remark From Philippe & Bamford, 2008: the lectotype (Andrews, 1955) is a species based on a piece of wood from the Triassic of Germany, described as having both axial and radial resin canals. This is surprising for such an old wood, as such condition is otherwise unknown before the latest Jurassic (Creber, 1972). The genus and lectotype both need revision. Furthermore, this genus is illegitimate since Kraus included in it one of the syntypes of Pinites Lindley et Hutton and several syntypes of Peuce Lindley et Hutton. It should not to be used until revision. An orthographic variant, Pitioxylon Kraus, is used by Lemoigne and Rioult (1971). [details]
