    Order Lepidodendrales is a classification of extinct plant species that lived during the Carboniferous and early Permian periods (about 360 to 258 million years ago). This order belongs to the division Lycopodiophyta (club mosses and their extinct relatives). Species of this order, most famously Lepidodendron, are characterized by their tree-like structure, scale-like leaves, and the presence of cones or cone-like structures. They grew in wet environments such as swamps and contributed to coal formation.
