Fossil wood of Robinia and Gleditsia from the Tertiary of Montana. Amer. Jour. Bot. 49(7): 692–696. Illus. 1962.—Fossil woods representing 2 genera of the Leguminosae, Robinia Linnaeus and Gleditsia Clayton, have been identified from Tertiary beds in southern Montana. These woods are noteworthy owing to their exceptionally fine structural preservation and from the standpoint of their paleogeographical distribution. Neither genus now lives in the region of Montana.
