CREATION BY EVOLUTION 



Fig 8. — A seed-bearing fern (Neuropteris 

 heterophylla) , one of the Pteridospermae or 

 Cycadofilices. The leaves resemble those of the 

 royal fern {Osmunda regal is) , and some of 

 those shown bear seeds. Note that the unex- 

 panded leaves are circinately coiled, as in 

 modern true ferns. The tv/o lower left-hand 

 figures show fronds with seeds attached.
