188 JURASSIC PLANTS FROM BEX HILL, X.S.W., 



Elatocladus (Taxites), but in the present examples bhere is more 

 regularity in the arrangement of the pinnae, which suggests that 

 they were not spirally arranged as in Elatocladus. 



The specimen figured is No. L.27 in Mr. Mitchell's collection. 



TiENiOPTERls spatulata McClelland ( = T. Daintreei McCoy). 



(Plate viii., fig.3). 



This species has recently been described and discussed both by 

 the writer* and by Arber,f and it is not necessary to discuss it 

 further. Typical examples of it are amongst the examples from 

 Bexhill, and one is figured. 



Tcenioptepis spatulata in Australia is of very common occur- 

 rence in Jurassic strata, and also occurs sparingly in the Creta- 

 ceous!; it has not yet been found in the Australian Triassic, 

 though Arbcr has recorded it from strata which he classed as 

 R luetic in New Zealand. 



The specimen figured is No. L.28 in Mr. Mitchell's collection.

 "Seed-bearing scales of the Araucarian type. Scales more or 

 less broadly wedge- shaped, the base narrow, truncated, the apex 

 broad; rounded, or truncated, often produced as a median, narrow,

 being towards the apex of the scale." (Arber).
