have moderately thick walls in the early-wood (3-8 μm the double- wall) and appear polygonal with slightly rounded corners and with radial / tangential diameters of 25-45 / 17-35 μm. In some specimens the cell walls are slightly corrugated. Toward the late-wood there is quite abrupt transition. The final late-wood comprises 6-13 rows of smaller and radially flattened tracheids of 8-18 / 5-15 μm in diameters and thick-walled, of 10-12 μm the double wall. Between two rays, 2-11 radial rows of tracheids can be counted, rarely more. The density is of 1100-1600 tracheids per mm

, of 18-20(-22) μm in diameter and with round apertures of 4-7 μm. The tracheidal pitting is usually poorly preserved, the pits are predominantly uniseriately arranged and appear spaced or contiguous, without crassulae. The pits are 1-2-seriately arranged, spaced or contiguous and without crassulae. No visible detail on the torus. On the tangential walls small, round to oval pits appear, of 8-12(15) μm in diameter, with small, round aperture, uniseriately arranged, spaced, and usually badly preserved. The length of the tracheids could not be measured, due to poor preservation. In longitudinal view, helical thickenings are absent but, sometimes, inclined striations were observed. Organic deposits as resin inside tracheids are often present.

Their height is of 12-20 cells. Resin canals may appear in the uniseriate rays also. Lateral, triangular intercellular spaces are common. The ray density is of 9-14 rays on tangential millimeter. In radial sections the rays appear heterogeneous, showing two kinds of cells, all procumbent. The parenchymal cells are of 15-20 μm tall have smooth walls or slightly rough and unpitted, not too thick (2.5-3.5 μm double wall), but the tangential end-walls have 1.5-2 μm (simple wall) and are slightly nodular. The ray-tracheids are slightly taller and appear either inside the ray-body, or more commonly, are marginally arranged and often they are difficult to differenciate from the parenchymal body-cells, having smooth walls and unpitted and not too thick (2.5-3.5 μm double wall). When marginal, the ray-tracheids are taller, of 25- 35(-45) μm, and show slightly wavy outer wall, rough or with small thickenings to inside, suggesting tiny denticles. In the cross-fields, which are poorly preserved, can be guessed 1-3 pinoid pits of 8-10 μm (or with taxodioid aspect), horizontally arranged, having large, inclined, oval to lens-like apertures of 3-4.5 μm. In the taller cross fields, there can be more pits, up to 6, in 1-2 rows. On the ray tracheids the pits are rounded. Indentures are absent. Spiral thickenings are absent.

So, they show in cross-section distinct growth rings, well developed, with thick-walled tracheids and axial canals lined by thin-walled epithelial cells, usually destroyed, which is typical for the secondary wood of Pinus-type (Greguss, 1955, p.121-123).

(2010) since we observed some similarities to our specimens, like the quite thick-walled tracheids, even in the early-wood, with uniseriate radial and tangential pitting, with no crassulae. Also, the parenchyma is absent and in the uniseriate and fusiform rays appear 1-3 resin canals, cross-fields have 1-3(-6) piceoid to pinoid small pits and ray-tracheids have tiny denticles.
