Anacardium germanicum
Discussion
Manchester et al. (2007) attributed this species to the genus Anacardium on the basis of the curved fruit and its inflated pedicel (hypocarp) (pl. 2ad) which compare very favorably with the extant A. occidentale L. (pl. 2f). This is the only known European occurrence of the genus which is now native to Central and South America
