JrilASSIC FLORA OF DOldLAS COrNrV. OUEG. 139 



CAuroi-rrin's ohkooxensis l'"()nlaiii(' n. sp. 

 I'l. XXXVn, Fi-s. 10, 1 I. 



Two lar.ii(> mil-liko objects wciv found, one each at localities Nos. 1 

 and 7. They seem to he the same species. They are. not unlike llie 

 seeds of Giukiio hilolxi, but an- much hivs^er. They are bi'oadiy ellip- 

 tical in form and are smooth on the surface and I'ounded at both ends, 

 which do not diilVi' in foi-m. They ai-e ciuitc- convex, but the orip;inal 

 surface seems to have l)eeu removed. 



The form given in PI. XXXVTl, ITij. 10. is 1 cm. long and '27 nun. 

 wide in its widest part. That given in I'ig. 11 is ;17 mm. long and 27 

 mm. wide. 



CaKPOI.ITIU S ELOXGATUS FolUailU' 11. up. 



I'l. XXXVll. Fiu-. ]■_>. 

 A single specimen of a narrowly elliptical nut-like oliject was 

 obtained at locality No. 7. It is the same type of plant as C<tri><>litlms 

 orefpnensis, but is smaller and proportionally much narrower. The 

 surface is smooth. It is slightly vmsymmetrieal, one longitudinal mar- 

 gin l)eing more convex than the other. This may he due to distoi-tion. 

 Its full length is not preserved, btit it is still 39 mm. long and 16 mm. 

 wide. It was probably over 4 cm. in length, giving a great length in 

 proportion to its width. 



Carpolitiius doxtglasensis Fonlaino n. sp. 

 PI. XXXVH, Fiu;. 13. 

 A single specimen of a peculiar pod-like organism was found at 

 locality No. 19. It is not convex, but lies even with the surface of the 

 rock and does not seem to have had nuich woody matter in its com- 

 position. It has at one end, the probable base, what looks like a frag- 

 nuMit of the stem to which it was attached, and at the opposite end 

 an apparent double beak, as if it were a two-^'alved pod. The length 

 is 2 cm. and the width in the widest part 1 cm. It is elliptical in form, 

 narrowing gi'adually from base to apex. Whatever it mav- be it is 

 certainly different from any of the previously described nut-like objects. 

 I name it from Douglas County, in which it was found.
