Description

From Hollick (1930) (p. 51)

"Plate 8, Figure 3"

"Nageiopsis zamioides Fontaine, The Potomac or younger Mesozoic flora: U.S. geol. Survey Mon. 15, p. 196, pl. 79, figs. 1, 3; pl. 80, figs. 1-2a, 4; pl. 81, figs. 1-6, 1889." (Fontaine 1889)

 

Remarks

From Hollick (1930) (p. 51)

"This single leaf is referred to the above-named species with hesitation, although it apparently represents the genus Nageiopsis. In outline it might readily be mistaken for a small form of Podozamites lanceolatus (Lindley and Hutton) C. F. W. Braun, as may be seen by comparison with certain of the figures of that species shown on the same plate; but the coarser nervation serves to distinguish it."
