Figs. 6, 7.

B192/63: Isolated pinna 14 mm. long, 9 mm. wide, obliquely obovate with cuneate base 1.5 mm. wide, margin entire. Venation: distinct, three veins at base (Fig. 7* *). Repeated dichotomies result in about 60 veins at margin.

The junction between the base of the pinnule and the rachis is not preserved so the specimen cannot be determined more accurately.

[Footnote] * Fig. 7 is a sketch from a further exposure of the base, made often the photograph was taken.
