the flowering plants (angiosperms), also known as Angiospermae, are the most diverse group of land plants, with an estimated 250,000 to 400,000 species, belonging to around 415 families. They comprise the dominant form of terrestrial vegetation. Angiosperms are seed-producing plants that can be distinguished from gymnosperms by various synapomorphies (derived characteristics), including flowers, endosperm within the seeds, and production of fruits that contain the seeds Ancestors of flowering plants diverged from gymnosperms around 245–202 million years ago; the first flowering plants known to exist are from 140 million years ago. They diversified enormously during the Lower Cretaceous and became widespread around 100 million years ago. They replaced conifers as the dominant plants by 60 million years ago.
