Euryale nodulosa

Euryale nodulosa is a fossil species of Euryale from the Pliocene of Reuver, Limburg Province, Netherlands[1] and Italy.[2]

Description

It is an aquatic herb[3] with globose, 8mm long, and 8 mm wide seeds.[4] The testa has nodules.[4][3]

Taxonomy

It was first published as Euryale nodulosa C. Reid, E. Reid by Clement Reid and Eleanor Mary Reid in 1915.[4] It has been proposed to place it in a separate genus Pseudoeuryale P.I. Dorof. as Pseudoeuryale nodulosa (C. Reid, E. Reid) A.G. Negru published by Andrei Grigorievich Negru in 1979.[5] It has also been viewed as a synonym of Euryale europaea by Kirchheimer,[2][6] which was rejected by Martinetto.[2]

Distribution

It occurred in the Netherlands,[7][4] and in Italy.[2][8][7]
