New fossil species of Piceoxylon (Pinaceae), P. talovskiense sp. nov. and P. kamtschatkiense sp. nov., are described on the basis of wood anatomy from the Cretaceous and Paleogene (respectively) of the Talovka River basin in the northwestern Kamchatka Peninsula. The Late Cretaceous P. talovskiense sp. nov. shows wood characters of modern Picea. The wood anatomy of the Paleogene Piceoxylon kamtschatkiense sp. nov. is somewhat similar to those of modern Picea sitchensis and P. jezoensis. Fossil woods of Piceoxylon have been found in the Kamchatka Peninsula for the first time.
