Williamsonia is an extinct genus of seed plants belonging to the Bennettitales, a group of prehistoric plants that resembled cycads but represented a separate lineage. Bennettitaleans were widespread during the Mesozoic Era, and fossils attributed to Williamsonia have been discovered in several parts of the world.
These prehistoric plants produced distinctive reproductive structures and were associated with large, compound leaves that gave them a cycad-like appearance. Fossil remains of Bennettitales provide scientists with evidence about the diversity of vegetation that formed part of terrestrial ecosystems during the age of dinosaurs.
