Zelkova zelkovifolia ( UNGER) BŮŽEK et KOTLABA

Pl. 11, Fig. 5

1844 Ulmus zelkovifolia UNGER , p. 94, pl. 24, fig. 7 right, 9–13.

1845 Ulmus zelkovifolia UNGER ; Unger, p. 95, pl. 26, fig. 7 ( lectotype).

1963 Zelkova zelkovifolia ( UNGER) BŮŽEK et KOTLABA in KOTLABA, p. 59, pl. 3, fig. 7–8.

Two leaf fragments showing coarsely dentate margins and which prove the occurrence of this fossil species at Knížecí.

D i s c u s s i o n. In general both fragments match a much more diversified record from Kundratice and Bechlejovice ( Kvaček and Walther 1998, 2004). They differ from the simple dentate elm foliage, e.g. Ulmus fischeri HEER , in having fewer secondary veins, although in some critical cases the differentiation might be arbitrary.
