Protobarinophyton obrutschevii Ananiev 1955, with three spore cones. Emsian, Lower Devonian, Torgashinskoe, near Krasnoyarsk.

"The relationship of barinophytes to other plants has been the subject of some debate. Some authorities place them within the Zosterophyllophyta, an extinct group of small Devonian plants that may have given rise to the lycopsids. In any case, barinophytes, zosterophylls and lycopsids belong to the Lycophytina. As such, they belong to one of the two great lineages of vascular plants; the other lineage, the euphyllophytes, include the trimerophytes, ferns, progymnosperms and seed plants."
