Material: MÁFI: BK1134, BK-2451, BK-2454, BK-2491, BK-2914, BK-2925, BK-2926, BK-2991 The form of the most complete specimen is ellipsoidal. The lamina of the leaf becomes narrow toward the basis and the apex, however, both tips are missing. The measurable length of the leaf is 7 cm, the total length must have been about 8 cm, the width is 3. 5 cm. There are 11 pairs of rigid, straight secondary veins branching from the midvein, all terminating in teeth. The venation is craspedodromous. The teeth are compound. The distance of the secondary veins from each other, measured from the basis towards the apex are the following: left side: 0. 65, - , - , 0.7, 0.8, 0.65, 0.65, 0.7, 0.45, 0.45 right side: 0. 45, 0.65, 0.65, 0.75, 0. 7, 0.6, 0.65, 0.6, 0.45, 0.4 The angles between the midvein and the secondary veins, also proceeding from the basis towards the apex, are the following: left side: 52°, 49°, 48°, 49°, 44°, 39°, 45°, 35°, 29° right side: 50°, 44°, 42°, 42°, 40°, 42°, 40°, 41°, 41°, 37°, 36° The species is widely distributed in the European Tertiary. It is present in the Egerian stage floral localities almost everywhere in Hungary, sometimes in dominant number. It is an Arctotertiary element, which might have been a constituent of the vegetation of higher river catchments, a member of the intrazonal assemblage as such. Ulmus sp.

MÁFI: BK-2492, BK-2923, BK-2924, BK-2941 Some leaf fragments were assigned here that cannot be further defined because of their fragmented state. Probably they also belong to U. pyramidalis , however, this can be only supposed lacking concrete morphological evidence. Zelkova Spach Zelkova zelkovaefolia (Ung. ) Bűz'ek et Kotl. Pl.

Material: MÁFI: BK-2494 Only one single leaflet was found at the Kesztölc locality. Its length is 2.8 cm, width 2.3 cm. The apex is acute, the base is missing. The midvein is straight, the secondary veins are not visible. The margin of the leaflet is toothed, the teeth are big, simple, their apical side is straight or convex, and they are essentially shorter than their basal side which is convex. The species was found in several Egerian sites from Hungary, thus from Verőcemaros (HABLY 1982), Vértes szőlős (HABLY in press), but is represented in the Egerian floras only with 1-2 specimens only. It only occurs in great quantities in Hungary in Miocene sites,
