Penosphyllum cordatum (WARD) HICKEY.
This species was treated by Ward (1887) and Brown (1962) under the name Pterospermites , but that generic name, based on probable winged seeds from the Miocene of Oeningen, had been incorrectly applied to leaves, so Hickey (1977) coined the genus Penosphyllum . The leaves resemble those of some sterculioid Malvaceae .
