Mineralogy
The first flowering plants emerged and the high rainfall ensured expansion of the plant world. This created dense, lush tropical forests with more flowering plants. Due to the strong reef formation, hexacorals, mussels, crinoids and echinoderms appeared. In addition, the Archaeopteryx (prehistoric bird) is well developed with feathers and skeleton during this time.
