The Triassic period, spanning from approximately 252 to 201 million years ago, is the first period of the Mesozoic Era, following the Permian-Triassic extinction event. It is characterized by the emergence of early dinosaurs, mammals, and the first true reptiles, alongside flourishing coniferous forests. The climate during this time was generally hot and dry, leading to the formation of vast desert landscapes and shallow seas. The Triassic ultimately set the stage for the dominance of dinosaurs in the subsequent Jurassic period.

When did the Lepidodendron tree go extinct?
