The cover image shows a Miocene flower of Ayenia sect. Vahihara (Malvaceae) preserved in amber and its reconstruction based on X-ray tomography data. This provides evidence of lianas in a Miocene rainforest in southeast China, and reveals a morphological stasis in floral structure within a tropical liana lineage since at least ∽14.7 million years ago. [See Shi et al., pp. 1500–1510.]
