Juglandaceae de CANDOLLE ex PERLEB

A leaflet fragment is attributable to Engelhardia orsbergensis (WESSEL et WEBER) JÄHNICHEN, MAI et WALTHER on account of its finely serrate margin and sessile asymmetrical base. This extinct mesophytic element accompanies late Palaeogene and Neogene floras of Europe ( Jähnichen et al. 1977) mostly comprised of thermophilous aspects (mastixioid assemblages). It is rare in the late Miocene and Pliocene deposits of Europe (e.g., Kvaček et al. 1995).
