Hably, Lilla: Egerian fossil flora from Kesztölc, NW Hungary

Pineaceae Pinus L. Pinus sp. Material: MÁFI: BK-2930 Long, straight pine needle of 4. 8 cm length and 0. 15 cm width. The vein running along the middle of the pine-needle can be clearly identified. As no more of such remains were found here, more precise identification of the taxon is not possible lacking more extensive information. Taxodiaceae Taxodium Rich. Taxodium dubium (Sternberg 1823) Heer 1853 Pl.

Material: MÁFI: BK1113, BK-1114, BK-1143 Fragment of sprouts of 1.0-1.9 cm. On the longest one, 7 pairs of leaves were preserved, in fairly good state of preservation on one side, while fragmented on the other side. The dimensions of the leaves are as follows: length: BK-1114: 1.0, 0.7, 0.75 cm BK-1143: 0.9, 0.8, 0.9, 0.8, 0.9 cm width: 0. 1-0. 12 cm The presence of Taxodium dubium denotes a marshy environment. Because this species is present on the site only in relatively small quantities and fairly fragmented specimens, it may be assumed that the pieces underwent a relatively long transport, representing the vegetation of a swamp relatively far from the actual site. A mass accumulation of the species is known only from the Egerian strata of Vértesszőlős from Hungary (HABLY in press), though occassionally some specimens of the species in fragments were located at some other sites of the Kovaíov Formation.
