Equisetites is an extinct genus of vascular plants within Equisetaceae, a family of vascular plants that reproduce by spores rather than seeds.[22] The genus was named by Sternberg (1833)[1] and contains at least 40 named species and two unnamed species,[23] with the earliest known species being E. hemingwayi from the Westphalian of Yorkshire, England, though the affinity of this genus to modern Equistaceae is uncertain.[24]
