Rhamnus Eridani Vug. 



One specimen; Museum number, 2578. 

 Carya antiqua ? Ny. 



Eleven specimens ; Museum number, 2443. 

 Quercus angustiloba Al. Br. 



One specimen ; Museum number, 2551. 



Quercus Mooriif Lx. The species is figured from three specimens in 

 Miss. Foss. Flo., PI, xvi, figs. 1-3. Of these specimens none are alike ; 

 they all differ much by the size, the more or less curved nerves, being 

 only identified by the peculiar short blunt teeth, separated by very 

 shallow or straight sinuses. In this specimen the leaf greatly differs 

 by the acuminate apex, while none of the three specimens of the Mis- 

 sissippi has the apex preserved, only in one, fig. 3, the apex being 

 erased, appears blunt. Considering the affinity of nervation and iden- 

 tity of dentation, I refer the leaf to the species of the Mississippi 

 Flora, which still has other species identical with those of Campbell's 

 Quarry, Cross Lake, near Shreveport, La.
