Figure 7. Rhabdophyllites diapyros, paratypes. (1–3) USNM
535055. (1) Complete specimen, closely spaced secondaries faintly
visible. Scale bar equals 1 cm. (2) Detail of inset in box 1 from
approximate center of blade, of midvein (at right, running bottom to top),
secondary and intersecondary veins of the "Clusia" type (running towards
upper left from the left side of the midvein and towards upper right from the
right side of the midvein), and random reticulate tertiary veins. Scale bar = 2
mm. (3) Detail of teeth corresponding to inset box in (1) along the leaf
margin, showing looped accessory venation and apex (dark areas at apex are
remnant coal flakes probably unrelated to glands). Scale bar equals 0.5 mm.
(4, 5) USNM 535056. (4) Complete specimen, showing teeth and faintly
visible, closely spaced, thin secondary veins. Note conspicuous insect-feeding
hole bordered by dark reaction tissue at lower left of blade. Scale bar equals 1
cm. (5) Detail of area near insect-feeding hole in (4), showing faintly
preserved secondary and intersecondary veins (running from midvein, at right,
towards upper left) and some tertiary veins. Scale equals 1 cm.
