12mm fruit from coal deposit.

Plant.

Durania is a plant genus that was based on an extinct Oligocene fruit from the Oligocene of Germany but one researcher later identified the fruit as belonging to the modern genus Rehderodendron.  It’s unclear if this has become the prevailing view

Durania is also a genus of rudist, a Cretaceous mollusc.  A genus can be valid as both a plant and an animal but a genus can be erected for only one taxon per kingdom.
