Description

From Hollick (1930) (p.55)

"Plate 24, Figure 1"

"Leafy twigs; leaves linear-lanceolate, obscurely petiolate, about 6 millimeters in length, acute, closely approximated, rigid, subtending angles of 60° to 70° with the slender, rigid supporting twig."

 

Remarks

From Hollick (1930) (p.55)

"This single specimen appears to be distinct from any of the coniferous remains of similar surficial characters. It resembles long-leaved twigs of Glyptostrobus, such as are figured on the same plate, but the leaves are apparently rounded at the base, short petiolate, and rigid, thus indicating generic relationship with Cephalotaxopsis."
