ABOMINABLE MYSTERY. “Darwin called their sudden appearance in the fossil record an “abominable mystery.” Since Darwin’s time, we have been able to clarify that picture a little bit. Even so, our understanding of the origin of the angiosperm lineage is dubious at best. When and why did flowers evolve? There is scant fossil evidence to illustrate the early evolutionary steps in this development of flowers.”
