Abstract
A list of all known fossil wood taxa recorded from the Cretaceous, up to December of 2024, is given. The list contains 57 genera and 317 species of gymnospermous wood described from 48 countries across seven continents. 39 genera and 165 species were reported from Asia, 28 genera and 67 species from Europe, 33 genera and 48 species from Africa, 20 genera and 48 species from North America, 13 genera and 35 species from South America, 4 genera and 4 species from Australia and 5 genera and 12 species from Antarctica. 54 genera and 171 species were documented from the Lower Cretaceous, and 26 genera and 76 species from the Upper Cretaceous. Systematically, 1 genus and 2 species belong to Cycadales, 1 monotypic genus belongs to Bennettitales, 2 genera and 3 species belong to Ginkgoales, 52 genera and 306 species are of Coniferales, and 1 genus and 3 species are incertae sedis.
