Magnolia Woodbridgensis Hollick, in Newb. Fl. Amboy 

 Clays, 74. //. 36. f. II ; pi. 57. /. 3-7. 1896. Hol- 

 lick, Trans. N. Y. Acad. Sci. 16: 133. pi. 14./. 8.

While the fragments shown on plate 33 have the venation 

 entirely obscured, I have no hesitation in referring them to 

 the above species, especially as I have found other smaller 

 fragments with the characteristic venation of Magnolia. 



Judging from the nearly parallel lateral margins of the 

 fragment shown on plate 37 it would seem to indicate a 

 rather longer leaf than the typical Magnolia Woodridgensis, 

 a leaf more like Magnolia Boulayana Lesq. or Magnolia 

 glaucoides Newb. The incomplete nature of the specimen, 

 however, and the total obliteration of the venation make it 

 preferable to place it under M. Woodbridgensis. Leaf-blade 

 apparently quite thick. 



Magnolia tenuifolia Lesq. PI. 47./. 10. 



Magnolia tenuifolia Lesq. Am. Jour. Sci. 46 : 100. 

 1868; Cret. Flora, 92. pi. 21. f. i. 1874; Fl. Dak. 

 Group, i^S. pi. 24./. I. 1892. 



Previously known from the Dakota Group at Decatur, 

 Neb., Kansas, and Peace River, Northwest Territory. 



Our fragment is very similar to /. i. pi. 24, Fl. Dak. 

 Group, of this species, except that the secondaries are some- 

 what straighter and more regular. 



There is considerable resemblance to Magnolia Capellinii 

 Heer, which is doubtfully recorded from Sayreville, N. J., 

 Glen Cove, L. L, and Martha's Vineyard, as well as from 

 the Dakota of the West and from Greenland. 



Ours, while only a fragment, denotes a more elongated 

 leaf than that of M. Capellinii.
