Hemitrapa cf. pomelii (BOULEY) MAI

Pl. 7, figs 4-6

2003 Hemitrapa cf. pomelii (BOULEY) MAI ; Wójcicki and Kvaček, p. 167, figs 2a-c.

Fruits fully decayed showing only parallel surface strands of epicarps in a form of oval fruit body with only weakly indicated four thorns.

D i s c u s s i o n: The objects were designated by Wójcicki (in Wójcicki and Kvaček 2003) as fruits of Hemitrapa, They are fully flattened and due to long maceration in water they are devoid of all coal matter. The lateral thorns are preserved only occasionally ( Wójcicki and Kvaček 2003, figs 2c). The affinities to Hemitrapa pomelii cannot be fully verified pending new better preserved specimens.
