Description

From Hollick (1930) (p. 106)

"Plate 79, Figure 2"


"Leaf compound, consisting of a terminal and two or more lateral leaflets, each approximately 2.5 centimeters in length by 1.5 to 2 centimeters in width, apparently elliptical or obovate, with wedge-shaped, entire bases; margin irregularly dentate in the upper part; nervation pinnate, craspedo-camptodrome."

 

Remarks

From Hollick (1930) (p. 106)

"This specimen is too fragmentary for either satisfactory description or comparison. It apparently represents a compound leaf, and it may have had more than the three leaflets that are preserved. The lower margin of one of the leaflets is distinctly dentate, and it may be assumed that the same character was shown by the others, in their upper parts. The terminal leaflet is petiolate, but whether or not the others were can not be determined. The generic reference is questioned, inasmuch as the missing parts of the leaflets may possess important diagnostic characters which, if perfect specimens are obtained, might indicate some other generic relationship."
