Leaf Blade:

Think of an A. heterophylla with the same widely curving secondary veins but with more primary veins (four to seven) and inconspicuous submarginal veins- that's A. ramosii. The submarginal veining is (usually) present, but is so close to the leaf margins to render these not instantly recognizable.
