34 TRANSACTIONS OF THE [NoV. 14 



Laurus HoLLJi:, Heer? 



PI. II. f. 17. 



A single fragment, representing what is api^arently the base 

 of a leaf of this species, obtained by Mr. Wm. T. Davis at 

 Kreischerville. 



DiosPYROs Steenstrupi, Heer. 



PL III. f. 8. 



A well preserved impression in one of the concretions from 

 Tottenville. It appears to be identical with the sjDecies 

 described and figured by Heer, under the above name. (Flor. 

 Foss. Arct. VII. PI. LXIV. f. la, lb). 



Kalmia Brittoniana, n. sp. 

 PI. II. f. 6, 7, 8. 



Leaf about 1 inch long by }^ inch wide at widest part, oblong, entire, 

 rounded at the apex, tapering below, midrib prominent, no nervation 

 visible, indicating that the leaf was of a thick coriaceous consistency. 



Locality: clay beds, Kreischerville. Named in honor of Dr. 

 N. L. Britton, to whom I am indebted for valuable assistance in 

 tracing the affinities of many of the new species here 

 •enumerated. 



Eucalyptus Geinitzi, Heer. , 



PI. II. f. 5. 



This specimen, although exceedingly fragmentary, shows 

 clearlj' along the margin the characteristic veining of what have 

 been described as Eucalypti. E. Geinitzi has been found 

 abundantly at Woodbridge and has been previously noted by 

 me from Tottenville, hence it seems reasonable to consider our 

 fragment as belonging to this species. Locality: Ki-eischerville. 



Legumcnosites frigidus, Heer. 



PI. II. f. 11. 



I am unable to find any difference between the specimen here 

 figured, found in the clay at Kreischerville, and the figure 

 under this name by Prof. Heer, from the Cretaceous of 

 Greenland. (Flor. Foss. Arct. VII. PI. LV. f. 22.)
