Fossil leaves and associated reproductive structures from the Kundur locality, Amur Region, are examined. A new genus of the unlobed platanaceous leaves, Kunduriphyllum gen. nov. (Platanaceae) is described based on distinctive morphological and epidermal features. The similarity of epidermal characteristics and identical biological damage suggest that the leaves Kunduriphyllum kundurense gen. et comb. nov., staminate inflorescences Kundurianthus, and infructescences Kunduricarpus could be assigned to a single plant.
