The oak foliage assigned to this entity deviates from the standard leaf forms of the indicated fossil species, partly by the finer dentation and partly by the form of the blade. It is difficult to differentiate between Castanea MILLER and Quercus and therefore the taxon was often published as belonging to Castanea ( Knobloch and Kvaček 1976) .
