What paleoclimatic evidence supports continental drift?

Paleoclimatic evidence supporting continental drift includes the matching of certain rock formations, geological structures, and fossil distribution on continents now separated by vast oceans. For example, the presence of glacial deposits and coal seams that match across continents provides evidence that these landmasses were once connected. Additionally, the alignment of ancient climatic belts and the distribution of certain plant and animal species further support the theory of continental drift.
