摘 要:A fossil oak species,Quercus tenuipilosa *** et ***,is reported from the upper Pliocene Ciying Formation in Kunming,Yunnan Province,southwestern *** establishment of this species is based on detailed morphologic and cuticular *** fossil leaves are elliptic,with serrate margins on the apical *** primary venation is pinnate,and the major secondary venation is *** tertiary veins are opposite or alternate-opposite percurrent with two *** stomata are anomocytic,occurring only on the abaxial *** trichome bases are unicellular or *** new fossil species shows the closest affinity with theextant *** and the late Miocene *** *** et *** from the Xiaolongtan Formation of the Yunnan *** three species share similar leaf morphology,but differ with respect to trichome base and stomatal ***,and *** can be considered to constitute the *** *** the late Miocene,a gradual reduction in trichome base density has occurred in this *** trend is the opposite of that of precipitation,indicating that increased trichome density is not an adaptation to dry *** stomatal density(SD)of the *** complex was the highest during the late Miocene,declined in the late Pliocene,and then increased during the present *** values show an inverse relationship with atmospheric CO_2 concentrations,suggesting that the SD of the *** complex may be a useful proxy for reconstruction of paleo-CO_2 concentrations.
