Hypericum holyi is an extinct species of the genus Hypericum that was present from the Lower Miocene to the Upper Miocene.[1] Fossil seeds of the species have been found in Central Europe in general and Central Jutland, Denmark, in particular.[2]
While Hypericum holyi 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.[3]
