212 MR. С. REID AND ELEANOR M. REID ON 
RANUNCULUS REPENS, Linn. (Pl. 11. fig. 7.) 
Aehenes are common at several localities and are usually well-preserved. 
They are clearly distinguishable both by their shape and the character of 
their punetation from А. aeris and №. bulbosus, neither of which has yet 
been discovered. 
RANUNCULUS NEMOROSUs, DC. (Pl. 11. fig. 8.) 
An achene resembling R. repens, but larger, with wider, more bevelled 
margin, sides more coarsely pitted, and ridges between the pits rounded instead 
of sharp. This agrees with №. nemorosus and does not correspond with any 
other European form. The species belongs to woods and shady piaces in 
Central and Southern Europe. The fossil was found at Pakefield. 
HRANUNCULUS sp. 7. (Pl. 11. fig. 9.) 
A single achene of Ranunculus found at Beeston is very large, elongate 
oval, with terminal style, and no margin, the sides are rounded but pinched 
in. We can find no Ranunculus with achenes resembling this; it must wait 
for more specimens. 
HaNuNcULUs sp. 8. (PI. 11. fig. 10.) 
Ап achene from Pakefield, in shape much like R. Lingua, but the surface- 
pits are not elongated, We cannot match this ; but require more specimens 
for thorough examination. 
JALTHA PALUSTRIS, Linn, (Pl. 11. figs. 11, 12.) 
Several seeds have been found at Mundesley and Pakefield; but the testa 
is so fragile that they are difficult to preserve. 
NYMPHÆA LUTEA, Linn. (NUPHAR LUTEUM, Sibth. y Sm.). (Pl. 11. fig. 13.) 
Abundant at various localities. 
'ASTALIA ALBA, Woods ( МУМРНЖА ALBA, Linn.). (Pl. 11. fig. 14.) 
This speeies was recorded in 1861 by the Rev. S. W. King, but till lately 
we could obtain no corroborative evidence, and some of Mr. King's specimens 
were certainly derived from а more modern deposit than the Cromer Forest- 
bed. We have now found two seeds at Pakefield. They are much crushed 
and damaged; but still show the very characteristic surface-sculpture, of 
which, however, we have not obtained a satisfaetory photograph. 
NYMPHAACEE sp. 3. (Pl. 11. fig. 15.) 
Seed smaller than N. lutea and differing in shape and surface-pittings. 
It shows the characteristic funnel-shaped infolding of the testa, into which 
the embrvotega fits, and the surface-sculpture also suggests Nymphæaceæ.
