Deposits containing Fossil Plants.

Apparently a littoral deposit of the same date as the 

 Interglacial marine gravels which occupy the lower grounds, 

 and lie between two boulder-clays. 



Klinge bei Cottbus, Prussia. 



(Nehring, ' Ueber Wirbelthier-Reste von Klinge,' Neues 

 Jahrb. filr Miueralogie, 1895, pp. 183-208 ; Nehring, ' Ueber 

 Elephas-M.o\&rex\, aus dem diluvialen Torflager von Klinge 

 bei Cottbus,' Gesellscli. naturf. Frewide, 20th Oct., 1896.) 



The deposit is probably of Interglacial date. The plants 

 are associated with remains of Mammoth, Rhinoceros, Horse, 

 Reindeer, and a species of Megace'os closely allied to the 

 Irish Elk. The determination of the plants is mainly due 

 to Dr. C. Weber.
