Description. — 'Xes feuilles sont coriaces, a la base attenuees, 

 entieres ; la nervure mediane est forte; elle porte deux nervures 

 secondaires faibles, aerodromes, qui sont presque paralleles au 

 limbe ; mais elles ne sont pas opposees, comme chez les Daphno- 

 giene et Cinnamomum." Heer, 1866. 



This species was described by Heer from the Dakota group of 

 Nebraska and was based upon very incomplete material. His 

 specimens have some long ascending secondaries, but L.es- 

 quereux's more complete specimens from the same horizon and 

 region show that these secondaries were not aerodrome, but 

 camptrodone. The species in this feature and also in other.
