Description

From Hollick (1930) (p. 79)

"Plate 44 Figure 2"

"Magnlia amplifolia Heer, Beitrage zur Kreide-Flora; I, Flora von Moletein in Mabren: Soc. belv. sci. nat. Nouv. mem., vol. 23, No.2, p. 21, pl. 8, figs. 1, 2; pl. 9, fig. 1, 1869." (Heer 1869)

 

Remarks

From Hollick (1930) (p. 79)

"This leaf is evidently identical, specifically, with the specimen referred to the species by Lesquereux (1892) (p. 200, pl. 24, fig. 3) from the Dakota sandstone of Kansas. The species was also identified (Hollick 1906) (p. 65, pl. 18, fig. 1) from the Magothy formation of Marthas Vineyard, Mass., on the strength of a rather fragmentary specimen. The Old World representatives of the species belong in the Cenomanian or Senonian of Bohemia and Moravia."
