  ABSTRACT: Two recent publications from basically the same authors challenge the intelligence and wisdom of all botanists. The conflict between Friis et al. and Herendeen et al. defies all people in favor of Friis et al.: Friis, Crane and Pedersen are fighting against themselves. Taking either side offends Friis et al. Furthermore, based on an artificially fabricated feature, Friis et al. placed a new fossil genus Hedyflora into the Chloranthaceae (Angiosperms). The validity of this taxon is spurious. If this taxon were accepted, botany would appear approaching an art rather than a science.
