Description

Leaf: shape variable, usually cuniform, small; distally rounded, decurrent to petiole; dissection of lamina variable, usually bilobed; venation dichotomous.

Remarks

Bell (1957, p. 30) quite correctly pointed out that Hollick's Ginkgo minor Hollick (1930, Plate 2, Fig. 4b; Plate 13, Figs. 1-7; Plate 19, Figs. 6b, 7b; Plate 29, Figs. 2c, 4c, 6a) from the Chignik Formation was indistinguishable from G. dawsoni and should be regarded as conspecific.
