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

especially in its late periods (Sarmatian). Z. zelkovaefolia

, though characteristic for the Miocene all over Europe, can also be found in some Egerian localities in small quantities, like in Upper Austria (KOVAR 1982).

Material: BP: 85. 329. 1., 85. 351. 1., 85. 362. 1. MÁFI: BK-1106, BK-2929 The length of the leaflets varies between 4.0-5.5 cm, their width between 0.8-1.2 cm. There were no complete leaves only leaflets found at the locality. Their shape is elongated ovate. The base and the apex is fragmented in most of the specimens, the apex is acute, the base is slightly rounded, asymmetrical. In case of several specimens, not only the base, but the whole lamina of the leaf is asymmetrical as well. The secondary veins terminae in teeth, among them a dense intermediate network of veins branches out from the midvein. The teeth are situated relatively far from each other, their apex is pointed, standing upwards. The basal side of the teeth is slightly concave or straight, and is essentially longer than the apical side, which is concave. The species was mentioned by PÁLFALVY (1981) from the flora of the Wind-brickyard, Eger. It is also present in some other localities studied by the author, which are so far unpublished. The species is widely distributed in the Tertiary of Europe, both from geographical and temporal aspects. Its most significant occurrence in Hungary is known so far from the Ipolytarnóc Lower Miocene (HABLY 1985a). It is a typical palaeotropical element preferring warm climate, disappearing gradually from the Hungarian flora during the deterioration of the climate.
