海南岛昌昌盆地始新世发现一新种。本文首次综合报道了海南岛昌昌盆地始新世的一种Nelumbo化石。果实、块茎、根茎与许多不定根、叶子和花托的共存表明植物生长在它们被保存的地方。这些标本与孢粉组合及其它大型化石相结合，表明早始新世晚期至晚始新世早期，长昌盆地属于热带或亚热带湿润气候。(C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.版权所有
A new species of Nelumbo Adanson is described from the Eocene of the Changchang Basin, Hainan Island, South China. This is the first comprehensive report on a fossil Nelumbo species from the Eocene of the Changchang Basin, Hainan Island. The co-occurrence of fruits, tubers, rhizomes with numerous adventitious roots, leaves, and receptacles indicates that the plants grew where they are preserved. These specimens, combined with palynological assemblage and other macrofossils, indicate a tropical or subtropical humid climate in the Changchang Basin from the late early Eocene to early late Eocene.
