 Without a comparison of specimens this reference is only 

 provisional, although from the published figures our specimen 

 is almost exactly like the detached specimens from the Po- 

 tomac formation described as above. Fontaine considers 

 them as probably belonging to some species of BatcropsiSy a 

 Lower Cretaceous genus which does not occur in New Jersey ; 

 nor is it at all likely to have persisted as late as the Middle 

 Cretaceous. Remains are abundant in the Potomac formation 

 attached to stems ; also found detached in the Lower Creta- 

 ceous of the Black Hills ; and in the Kootanie at Great Falls, 

 Montana. Remains indicate a small, smooth, and hard 

 nutlet.

Apparently the seed of some drupaceous fruit as the name 

 indicates. Recorded by Hollick from the Matawan forma- 

 tion near Cliffwood, N. J. ; not found by me.
