M a t e r i a l. A leaf compression from GLA20 (MGPTPU141030).
D e s c r i p t i o n. Simple leaf almost complete, lamina likely coriaceous, distinctly obovate, petiole not preserved; l × w = 56 × 23 mm, ratio l/w = 2.4; base cuneate-decurrent, apex shape convex, apex angle obtuse; margin entire; midvein straight; secondaries very faint, arising under medium steep angles, dense, straight; further details not visible.
R e m a r k s. This leaf possibly corresponds to Dicotylophyllum sp. 1 in Teodoridis et al. (2015a).
In Sideroxylon View in CoL L., similar leaves occur, a genus whose fruit remains have been found in post-evaporitic deposits ( Niccolini et al. 2022). For example, the leaves of S. mascatense (A.DC.) T.D.PENN. View in CoL described by Hopkins et al. (2021) resemble in leaf shape and venation to Dicotylophyllum sp. 1 .
