BRAUN ) ETTINGSHAUSEN Pl. 2, Fig. 13–14 Text-fig. 3. CA climate charts for the Monte Tondo and Tossignano floras, showing climatic ranges of the Nearest Living Relatives of the fossil taxa with respect to MAT. Right-hand positoned large bold figures and shaded areas in each case indicate the Coexistence Interval, with the number of overlapping taxa being at a maximum. Leaves simple, petiolate, lamina elliptic to widely elliptic, rarely obovate, up to 72 mm long and 50 mm wide, base rarely slightly asymmetric widely cuneate to cuneate, apex acuminate to shortly acuminate and blunt, margin entire, venation suprabasal acrodromous, midrib strong, moderate, straight or slightly curved in apical part, lateral veins thinner, alternate or opposite running along margin, usually connecting secondaries at 2/3 of the blade length, secondary veins thinner, alternate, curved and looping by margin or straight to forked between midrib and lateral veins, tertiary veins alternate perpendicular, straight to sinuous, often forked, venation of the higher orders regular polygonal reticulate, areolation well developed, 3- to 4-sided, veinlets lacking. This sub-triveined fossil species is widely spread in the Miocene of Europe and has also been assigned to the genus Cinnamomum on an account of more complete specimens from Oehningen (see in detail Holý et al. 2012 ) and the closest affinity with extant Cinnamomum camphora ( LINNAEUS ) J.
