ARALIA NassavENsIs n. sp. (Pl. 174, f. 3, 7.) 
Leaves palmately three-lobed, decurrent at base; lobes broad, 
obscurely and irregularly dentate, pointed; nervation strong, 
craspedodrome where terminating in the teeth, otherwise campto- 
drome along the margin; secondaries irregular in location and 
direction ; tertiary nervation and areolation reticulate, forming 
irregular polygonal meshes. 
These two beautifully preserved fragments represent a leaf 
apparently allied to A. Looziana Sap. et Mar.,* and A. Welling- 
toniana Lesq.,+ which latter has also been found in the Amboy 
Clays. It is clearly, however, neither of these, and Prof. Lester 
F. Ward, to whom I submitted the drawings for comparison, con- 
siders it a new species, identical with specimens of his own col- 
lecting, from the vicinity of Washington, D. C., in the new Penn- 
sylvania Avenue extension. 
Named for Nassau, the old name for Long Island. , 
Locality : Brooklyn, fide specimens in the cabinet of the Long 
Island Historical Society. f. 3, “Throop Avenue and Kosciusko

This species is apparently one of the most abundant in the 
cretaceous of the East. It was previously reported by me from 
Long Island,t and from two localities on Staten Island;§ it is 
abundant, at three different localities in the Amboy clays, and is 
One of the species mentioned by White as occurring on Martha’s — 
Vineyard.|| It is also described by Heer from Moletein,{ and by _ 
Squereux from the West.** 
Locality: Glen Cove.
