一些石化的植物碎片，由O。H.厄德曼从埃尔贡山在赤道非洲审查。碎片的年龄和石化发生的条件尚不确定。标本E1、10和12是木质茎的一部分，其结构明确地表明了它们的龙脑香科亲缘关系。因此，这些标本被命名为Dipterocar poxylon africanum，它们特别有趣地显示了真正的Dipterocarp类型以前比现在有更广泛的分布。
Certain petrified plant-fragments, collected by Dr. O. H. Ödman from Mount Elgon in Equatorial Africa, are reviewed. The age of the fragments, and the conditions under which fossilization took place, are indeterminate. Specimens E 1, 10, and 12 are portions of woody stems, the structure of which indicates unmistakably their Dipterocarpaceous affinities. The name Dipterocar poxylon africanum is therefore proposed for these specimens, which are especially interesting in showing the true Dipterocarp type to have had, formerly, a much wider distribution than at the present day.
