Euryale limburgensis is a fossil species of Euryale from the Pliocene of Tegelen, Limburg Province, Netherlands, [2] from the lower Pleistocene of Greece, [3] from the Pliocene [4] and Pleistocene of Italy, [5] and from the Pliocene of France. [6]
The seeds are 9 mm long, and 7 mm wide. [7] The testa is granulate. [8]
It was first published as Euryale europaeaC. Reid, E. Reid. by Clement Reid and Eleanor Mary Reid in September 1907. It was published later than Euryale europaea C. A. Weber published by Carl Albert Weber in April 1907. [1] Therefore, it was changed to Euryale limburgensisC. Reid, E. Reid published by Clement Reid and Eleanor Mary Reid in July 1910. [8] [2] The type locality is Tegelen, Limburg Province, the Netherlands. [2] It has been proposed to move it to a separate genus PseudoeuryaleP.I. Dorof. as Pseudoeuryale limburgensis(C. Reid, E. Reid) P.I. Dorof. published by Pavel Ivanovich Dorofeev in October 1972 . [9]
It occurred in the Netherlands, [2] Greece, [3] Italy, [5] [4] and France. [6]
The Nymphaeales are an order of flowering plants, consisting of three families of aquatic plants, the Hydatellaceae, the Cabombaceae, and the Nymphaeaceae. It is one of the three orders of basal angiosperms, an early-diverging grade of flowering plants. At least 10 morphological characters unite the Nymphaeales. One of the traits is the absence of a vascular cambium, which is required to produce both xylem (wood) and phloem, which therefore are missing. Molecular synapomorphies are also known.
Nuphar is a genus of aquatic plants in the family Nymphaeaceae, with a temperate to subarctic Northern Hemisphere distribution. Common names include water-lily, pond-lily, alligator-bonnet or bonnet lily, and spatterdock.
Leitneria floridana (corkwood), the sole species in the genus Leitneria, is a deciduous dioecious shrub or small tree, found only in the southern United States states of Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Missouri and Texas.
Clement Reid FRS was a British geologist and palaeobotanist.
Eurya is a genus of about 70 species of flowering plants in the family Pentaphylacaceae.
Iteaceae is a flowering plant family of trees and shrubs native to the eastern USA, southeastern Africa, and south and Southeastern Asia. Some older taxonomic systems place the genus Itea in the family Grossulariaceae. The APG III system of 2009 includes the former Pterostemonaceae in Iteaceae. Consequently, it now has two genera with a total of 18 known species.
Ehretia is a genus of flowering plants in the borage family, Boraginaceae. It contains 66 species native to the tropics and subtropics of the Americas, sub-Saharan Africa, Asia, Papuasia, and Australia. The generic name honors German botanical illustrator Georg Dionysius Ehret (1708–1770).
Euryale is a genus of flowering plants of the family Nymphaeaceae.
Eleanor Mary Reid (1860–1953) was a British palaeobotanist. Throughout her life she worked closely with her husband, Clement Reid, a trained botanist and geologist, and later worked alongside Marjorie Chandler.
Marjorie Chandler (1897–1983) was a British paleobotanist who made her own reputation as a scientist after a long partnership with Eleanor Mary Reid, as a research assistant.
Actinidia faveolata is an extinct species in the kiwifruit genus, Actinidia.
It is suggested a late Pliocene age (Reuverian) for this flora. Palynofloras from drill cores in the surroundings of Frankfurt am Main and Hanau also suggests a late Pliocene age. The Pliocene flora of Frankfurt am Main described by Karl Mädler during the first half of the twentieth century is a key flora for the European Pliocene.
Susiea newsalemae was a species of plant, which occurred in the Late Paleocene period of North Dakota, USA. It is monospecific within the genus Susiea.
Euryale yunnanensis is a fossil species of Euryale from the Late Miocene of Yunnan, China.
Euryale lissa is a fossil species of Euryale from the Pliocene of Brunssum, Limburg Province, Netherlands and from Höchst, Germany.
Euryale nodulosa is a fossil species of Euryale from the Pliocene of Reuver, Limburg Province, Netherlands and Italy.
Euryale europaea is a fossil species of Euryale from the Pleistocene of Chekalin, Kaluga region, Russia, Belgium, and Bulgaria.
Euryale spinosa is a fossil species of Euryale from the Miocene of Ardnamurchan, Scotland, United Kingdom.
Euryale bielorussica is a fossil species of Euryale from the Pleistocene of the Minsk region, Belarus.
Euryale carpatica is a fossil species of Euryale from the Pliocene of Krościenko nad Dunajcem, Poland.
