A new species of Cyclopteris sensu was discovered in the upper sandstone beds of the Placid Shale. New species is distinguished by chevronate veins present between major radiating veins characteristic of Cyclopteris. Discovery of this species expands this genus into the Carboniferous delta deposits of Central Texas, and demonstrates the need to revisit these classic sites.
