 Locality. — Cherry Creek, Crook County, Oregon. Collected by 

 Maj. Charles E. Bendire (U. S. Na(. Mus.,"Nos. 242(5, 2430). 



Akalia \ sp. Knowlton. 



PI. XVI, tig. 8. 



Aralia ?sp., Knowlton in Merriani, Univ. Cal., Bull. Dept. (ieol., Vol. II, No. 9, p. 

 289, 190L 



A fragment of what appears to be the upper part of a lobe of an 

 Aralia. It has an entire margin and alternate, much curved, rather 

 thin secondaries. 



This may be the upper portion of a single leaf like Juglans, l)ut on 

 the slab appears more like Aralia If this latter view be true, its 

 form can only be conjectured. 



Locality. — Three miles above Clarnos Ferry. Collected by Mer- 

 riam's expedition of 1900 (Mus. Univ. Cal., No. 912). 



Aralia sp., Knowlton. 



Plate XV, tig. 4. 



Aralia sp., Knowlton in Merriani, Univ. Cal., Bull. Dept. Geol., Vol. II, No. 9, 

 p. 289, 1901. 



The fragmentaiy upper portion of a large leaf, showing portions of 

 three lobes. The lobes are some 5 or 6 cm. in length and about 3 cm. 

 in width. They appear to l)e without teeth. 



It is impossible to tell from this fragment what it is. It may be 

 the uppei- portion of a moderate sized leaf of Aralia Whitneyi Lesq. 



Locality. — Three miles above Clarnos Ferry. Collected by Merri- 

 am's expedition of 19U0 (Mus. Univ. Cal., No. 913). 



Aralia Whitneyi? Lesq. 



Akalia Whitneyi Lesq., Foss. PI. Aurif. Gravel, p. 20, PL V, tig. 1, 1878; Proe. U. S. 

 Nat. Mus., Vol. XI, p. 1(5, 1888. 



The earl}^ collection from Van Horn's ranch contained a single 

 example that Lesquereux referred with some doubt to this species, 

 and the later collection also contains a single specimen w hich I assume 

 to belong here. It is a smaller leaf than the figured type, which is 

 itself much smaller than the normal-sized leaves, and naturally has 

 shorter lobes, but it can hardly be anything else. 



Locality. — Van Horn's ranch, about 12 miles west of Mount Vernon, 

 Grant County, Oregon. Collected by Maj. Charles E. BiMidire (U. S. 

 Nat. Mus., No. 2429). Smaller specimen obtained by Merriam's expe- 

 dition in 1900 (Mus. Univ. Cal., No. 845).
