Abstract
An infructescence of Carpolites carpinoides Mai is reported from the lower-middle Miocene of the Polish coast of the Baltic Sea, close to Cape Rozewie. Based on this, the previously suggested morphological relationship between Carpolites carpinoides and extant Carpinus, Comptonia, Kolkwitzia, Pentaphragma, and Scaevola can’t be confirmed. In addition, the systematic review of recent angiosperm families using an interactive key (Intkey) did not successfully link Carpolites carpinoides to a particular family. From an analysis of the obtained information, it is suggested that Carpolites carpinoides may represent an extinct genus, probably of fagalean affinity. Carpolites carpinoides is suggested to be a typical Atlantic-Boreal province taxon and a common element of the Taxodium-Glyptostrobus swamp forests and coniferous bogs.
期刊介绍：
Section B of Palaeontographica publishes contributions to palaeobotany, i.e. papers on morphological traits, systematics and phylogenetic features of plants as well as papers on palaeoclimatology and palynogeography. Especially worth mentioning are the comprehensive monographs published in Palaeontographica B on specific floras or plant groups. Often palaeoclimatic or stratigraphic problems are clarified by resorting to palaeobotanical data published in Section B of Palaeontographica.
Throughout the last decades, numerous objects important to palaeophytology have been found in many places all over the world. As Palaeontographica publishes papers on floras on any parts of the world to report world-wide research, contributions in German, English and French have been published since the beginning of the journal, today English language publications are preferred.
Palaeontographica B is of interest to palaeobotanists, palynologists, palaeoclimatologists, stratigraphers and the libraries of all institutions engaging in such research.
