Myricaceae Myrica L. Myrica banksiaefolia UNGER 1850 Myrica banksiaefolia UNGER; Unger, p. 395. 1856 Dryandroides banksiaefolia HEER; Heer, p. 102, pi. 100, figs. 3-10. 1865 Myrica (Dryandroides) banksiaefolia UNGER; Saporta, p. 103. 1982 Myrica banksiaefolia UNGER; Hably, p. 95, pi. 2, figs. 3, 4, 6, 7, 11; pi. 8, figs. 2,3; pi. 9, figs. 1, 2,3. Material: sample No 863, depth 1743.5 m, No 863, depth 1744.6 m The total length of the leaf is approximately 6.5 cm, the measurable length is 4.7 cm, the width is 2.0 cm. The margin of the leaf is toothed. Most of the teeth are large, rounded, irregular in shape and spaced at different distances from each other. At their basal part a separate tooth can be found which is distinct from the lamina. The venation is dense; apart from the secondary veins terminating in the teeth, there are intermediate veins starting from the midvein. This species, as well as the other species of the genus, suggests swampy environment. The genus is widely distributed in the Tertiary of Europe. It is sporadically present in all periods of the Tertiary, best represented within coal seam layers where M. lignitum is dominant. These swamp associations are typical of the latest Miocene while the sporadical occurrences of M. banksiaefolia can be dated as Late Oligocène and Early Miocene. Aceraceae Acer L.

Material: sample No 855, depth 1719.2 m A tri-lobed leaf of which the central lobe and a side lobe are preserved. The basis is rounded, the midvein is stronger than the primary vein running to the side lobe. The leaf is not very deeply incised. Its margin is toothed, the teeth are becoming more prominent towards the apex. The teeth are small, simple with obtuse apices. It is known to occur sporadically in the Miocene of Hungary. Among the Upper Oligocène localities, it is common only at the Wind's brickyard in Eger.
