Fossil Gaps 3c

�The absence of any known series of such intermediates imposes severe restrictions on morphologists interested in the ancestral source of angiosperms [flowering plants] and leads to speculation and interpretation of homologies and relationships on the basis of the most meager circumstantial evidence.� Charles B. Beck, Origin and Early Evolution of Angiosperms (New York: Columbia University Press, 1976), p. 5.

�The origin of angiosperms, an �abominable mystery� to Charles Darwin, remained so 100 years later and is little better today.� Colin Patterson et al., �Congruence between Molecular and Morphological Phylogenies,� Annual Review of Ecology and Systematics, Vol. 24, 1993, p. 170.
