As I consider the Bridgeton specimens to almost certainly be- 
long in the latter family, but without any characters by which they 
can be identified positively with any living genus, I have thought 
it advisable to include them under Azomalophyllites, with a specific 
name to indicate the locality where they were found. 
The abundance of these remains is evidence that the plant to 
which they belonged was an important element in the flora 
of the region and of that of the geological age in which they flour- 
ished, and considerably extends our knowledge of the geograph- 
ical range of palms in the past.

Mr. A. H. Curtiss has sent me fine fruiting specimens of this 
rare species, collected near Jacksonville, Florida. They are ap- 
parently the first specimens found with mature achenes ; these are 
of the same general outline as the immature achenes figured by 
Mr. Smith, but slightly broader. In the center of each face there 
is an oblong swelling surrounded by a depression, while the edges
