This list of 2013 in paleobotany records new fossilplanttaxa that were described during 2013, as well as other significant discoveries and events related to paleobotany that occurred in the year.
A member of Osmundaceae. Originally described as a species of Ashicaulis; transferred to the genus Millerocaulis by Bomfleur, Grimm & McLoughlin (2017).[7]
A member of the family Ebenaceae described on the basis of fossil wood. Originally described as a species of Diospyros; Srivastava et al. (2018) transferred this species to the genus Ebenoxylon.[30]
