Why did the archaefructus become extinct?

Archaefructus, an ancient flowering plant that lived around 125 million years ago, likely became extinct due to a combination of environmental changes and competition from more evolved plant species. As climates shifted and ecosystems evolved, Archaefructus may have struggled to adapt to new conditions or compete for resources. Additionally, the rise of angiOSperms with more efficient reproductive strategies could have outcompeted it, leading to its decline and eventual extinction.
