Pl. 6, Fig. 3–4

Leaflets shortly petiolulate, lamina elliptic to ovate, 12 and 20 mm long, 7 and 10 mm wide, base rounded, apex obtuse, margin simply serrate, teeth rectangular, close, acute to blunt, sinus angular, venation semicraspedodromous, midrib strong, moderate, straight or curved, secondary veins thinner, straight, looping by the margin, alternate, at angles of 40–60°, tertiary veins alternate to opposite percurrent, straight to sinuous, rarely forked, venation of the higher orders regular polygonal reticulate, areolation well developed, areoles 3- or 4-sided, veinlets not visible.

The recovered leaflets with the serrate margin obviously belong to Rosa and match various fossil species, such as R. europaea KVAČEK et HURNÍK ( Kvaček and Hurník 2000, Bůžek 1971, as Rosa bohemica ENGELHARDT ).
