Klitzschophyllites choffatii (Saporta sensu Teixeira) emend. is reported from the upper Albian of the Utrillas Formation at the Plou locality, Teruel Province, northeastern Spain. The species shows obovate microphylls; dense, flabellate primary and secondary veins interconnected by fine, reticulate tertiary veins and intersecting with an intramarginal vein; and small glands in sinuses between triangular teeth. It exhibits more affinities with basal eudicots (especially some Ranunculales) than with monocots. Sedimentological and taphonomic evidence, along with morphofunctional features, supports a freshwater hydrophytic habit for K. choffatii.
