Ocotea heerii (GAUDIN) TAKHTAJAN

Pl. 2, Fig. 8–12

Leaves simple, often petiolate, lamina elliptic to widely elliptic, up to 92 mm long and 45 mm wide, base cuneate, apex acuminate and blunt, margin entire, venation brochidodromous, midrib strong and moderate, lowermost pair of secondary veins more distinct, higher pairs thinner, straight, looping by margin, alternate, distinct ovoid glands, up 2 mm long, in axils of some secondaries, tertiary veins perpendicular, straight to sinuous, rarely forked, venation of the higher orders regular polygonal reticulate, areolation well developed, 3- or 4-sided, veinlets probably lacking.

This leaf morphotaxon is sometimes synonymized with Ocotea hradekensis (KVAČEK et BŮŽEK) KVAČEK mainly due to the presence of glands (see Fischer and Butzman 2000, Teodoridis and Gregor 2001).
