On some other fragmented specimens found in the assemblage, the character of the secondary veins can be observed more easily. They are branching off the midvein rather regularly, turning in an arch upwards. MAI and WALTHER (1978) described the species on the basis of epidermis remains from the Haselbach flora. v There were further pieces described from the Egerian flora of Markvatice (BÛZEK, HOLY and KVACEK 1976) and Linz environs (KOVAR 1982). The determination of the pieces was performed by the help of epidermis analysis, and these types of leaves can be properly determined only using epidermis remains even today. Therefore the Vértesszőlős pieces cannot be unambiguously assigned to the species mentioned. Their assignment to the family of Laureaceae, however, seems to be well founded, thus yielding important ecological information. Together with the other laurel-leaf trees it could possibly contribute the forest- forming species of the subtropical forest. Sassafras Nees Sassafras tenuilobatum Andreánszky Pl. XXVI, Fig. 2. 1959 Sassafras tenuilobatum Andr.; Andreánszky, p. 6, Pl. 1, Fig. 2. Material: No.: 76.34.1. 1 piece Description: 3-lobed leaf, the lobes are very thin, the lamina is deeply dissected. The central lobe is the longest one, 7.0 cm long, while the two side lobes are 6.0 and 6.5 cm, respectively. The width of the lobes is 0.5-0.7 cm. The veins running along the two side-lobes enclose an angle of 44 with each other, that is, the angle of divergence from the midvein is 22 . The margin of the leaf is entire. The species was described from the Lower Oligocène flora of Kiseged by ANDREÁNSZKY (1959), similar prints were found also in the Upper Oligocène layers of the Wind's Brickyard section described under the name of Sassafras lobatum Sap. (ANDREÁNSZKY 1966b). Platanaceae Platanus L. Platanus neptuni Bűzek, Holy et Kvacek Pl. XIII, Figs. 1-3; Pl. XIV, Figs. 1-3; Pl. XV, Figs. 1-3; Pl. XVI, Figs. 1-3; Pl. XVII, Figs. 1-2; Pl.
