OF BRITISH COLUMBIA AND THE NORTH-WEST. 25 
6, DAVALLITES RICHARDSONI, 8. N. (Figs. 18, 18 a, 18 b.) 
Barren pinne, nearly at right angles to the petiole; narrow, with oboval pinnules, 
united at base, few veined and slightly decurrent on the partial petiole, to which they are at 
right angles. Length ofpinne 5 millimetres or less. Terminal pinna obtuse, lobed. Fertile 
pinnæ much narrower with semilunar pinnules, each with two thecæ on the upper edge. 
Collected by Mr. J. Richardson, at Protection Island. 
7. ADIANTITES PRÆLONGUS, N. N. (Fig. 19.) 
Frond simple, widening gradually from the base to near the apex, which is truncate 
and sometimes lobed. Length 10 centimetres, breadth about 3 centimetres. Texture 
apparently thin and delicate. Veins slender, diverging at very acute angles, and forking 
several times. This is evidently a fern, but of doubtful affinities. 
Collected by Dr. G. M. Dawson at Baynes’ Sound. 
8. PECOPTERIS, 8. N. 
Tri-pinnate, with small closely placed. pinnules, bluntly pointed. Venation obscure. 
Collected at Baynes’ Sound, by G. M. Dawson. 
9. AspipiuM KENNERLI, Newberry, Boston Journal of Natural History, Vol. VII, No. 4. 
This fern, said by Newberry to be very abundant in the shales over the Newcastle 
coal at Nanaimo, appears only in a few fragments in the collections submitted to me. 
10. TORREIA DENSIFOLIA, 8S. N. (Fig. 20, 20 a.) 
Branchlets with crowded leaves. which are about 2 centimetres long and 4 millimetres 
in breadth, obtusely pointed, parallel-sided and decurrent on the branchlets; one-veined, 
thick. In the absence of any knowledge of its fruit, the reference of this very distinct and 
beautiful plant is of course very uncertain. 
Collected by Mr. J. Richardson, at Protection Island. 
11. GILYPTOSTROBUS, 8. N. 
Fragments of branchlets resembling G, Ewropeus in size and form, but too obscure for 
certain determination. 
Collected by Dr. G. M. Dawson, at Baynes’ Island. 
12. Taxoprium CUNEATUM, Newberry, Boston Journal of Natural History, Vol. VIIL, No. 4. 
Newberry describes this as follows: Leaves numerous, short, broad-spatulate in form, 
rounded or sub-acute at summit, narrowed into a very short petiole or sessile on the 
branchlets. 
Collected by Mr. J. Richardson, at Nanaimo and Protection Island. 
13. SALISBURIA BAYNESIANA, S. N. (Figs. 21 and 21 a.) 
Leaf obliquely cuneate, thick; nervation dichotomous, obscure. Margin entire at 
sides, sinuate at apex. Leaves of Salisburya, possibly of the same species, though some- 
what larger, are found at Beaver Harbour, and are associated with oval seeds or nutlets 
possibly of the same tree. , 
Collected by Dr. G. M. Dawson, at Baynes’ Sound and Beaver Harbor.
