Hedera sp.

Pl. 11, Fig. 10–11

Leaf rhomboidal, 36 mm long and 22 mm wide, apex attenuate, base widely cuneate, margin entire, venation brochidodromous, midrib straight, secondaries alternate at angles of 10 to 30°, curved, looping, often forked, tertiary veins alternate to opposite percurrent, sinuous, venation of the higher orders poorly preserved.

The rhomboidal leaf with peculiar steep secondary venation is comparable with Hedera multinervis KOLAKOVSKI , recovered from the late Miocene deposits of Abkhazia and Greece ( Kolakovski and Shakryl 1978, Kvaček et al. 2002, Velitzelos et al. 2014).
