Both Nelumbonaceae and Platanaceae are known as fossils from the Albian (the dates are ca 106 and ca 110 mybp, respectively; for the former records, see Upchurch and Wolfe 2005), and Anderson et al.
That Platanaceae and Proteaceae are sister taxa may explain why there are so many leaf fossils from the southern hemisphere that are "platanoid" in their general aspect (K. Johnason, in Drinnan et al.
The wood anatomy of Proteaceae and Platanaceae is very different, although the former have concave vessel-parenchyma festoons and the latter concave growth ring boundaries in common, in addition to their broad rays.

Platanaceae were chosen as the sample lineage because their leaves are readily identifiable and the group has a well documented first appearance approximately 5 to 10 Myr prior to the Cenomanian.
Thereafter, the difference in the leaf damage index for the Platanaceae does not differ significantly from the damage index for other angiosperms, with the possible exception of the Hell Creek Flora where the platanaceous damage index is 31.6/50 as opposed to 37.3/50 for non-Platanaceae.
However, throughout the interval from the Cenomanian to the Eocene, the Platanaceae remained consistently less susceptible to margin feeding than the non-platanaceous angiosperms.

 Botany Photo of the Day: Platanus wrightii
I thought I'd follow up yesterday's Arbutus menziesii with another tree species I am anxious to spend more time photographing.
Platanus wrightii, or Arizona sycamore, is one of ten species in the genus Platanus; in turn, Platanus is the only genus in the family Platanaceae.
The genus Platanus has an odd biogeographical distribution: 1 species found in Vietnam and Laos, another in southeast Europe and southwest Asia, and the remainder in eastern North America, southwest USA and Mexico.
