Hypericum miocenicum is an extinct species of the genus Hypericum. Seeds of the species have been recorded from the Late Oligocene in Germany ( Saxony and Lusatia), the Late Miocene in Poland ( Poznan), and the Pliocene in Germany ( Thuringia). It differs from H. septestum, a more frequently found Hypericum paleospecies, by its thinner foveole walls and the shape of its surface cells, which are more rectangular. [1]
While Hypericum miocenicum has sufficient identifying characteristics to place it within the genus Hypericum, there is not enough surviving detail to assign it to any subdivisions within the genus. [2]
