Ailanthus pythii ( UNGER ) KOVAR-EDER et KVAČEK Pl. 11, Fig. 2–4 Incomplete leaflets and fragments subsessile to shortly petiolulate, asymmetric oblong to elliptic, 32 to 92 mm long and 19 to 32 mm wide, base cuneate, apex acuminate to acute, margin entire, venation brochiodromous, primary veins distinct, moderate, straight, secondary veins thinner, opposite to alternate, curved, numerous, at angles of 40–70°, tertiary veins alternate perpendicular, sinuous, venation of the higher orders regular polygonal reticulate, areolation well developed, 3- to 4-sided. These shortly petiolulate slightly falcate to S-shaped leaflets with entire or undulate margins are most comparable with the type material from the middle Miocene site Parschlug ( Kovar-Eder et al. 2004 ). However the assignment may not be without problems as the leaves are also similar to leaf morphotype of “ Sapindus ” falcifolius ( A . BRAUN ) A . BRAUN (see Kvaček et al. 2011) . M a t e r i a l.
