Abstract
Glossopteris anatolica, the most remarkable Gondwanan component of the Hazro flora (eastern Anatolia), has been found in a fossiliferous bed of the Gharif Formation (Huqf area, Sultanate of Oman, Arabian Peninsula). Considering the mixed Middle and Late Permian floras of the Arabian Plate, this remarkable new find supports the presence of an ecotonal zone between Cathaysia and Gondwana, in which Euramerican plants progressively penetrated, from the Middle to the End of the Permian.
