LIL f. 4, 5, under the name Widdringtonites Reichti Ett. sp. In 
our material the specimens are but little better than bundles of 
slender branches, consisting of lignite, which cracks and breaks 
upon exposure to the air, so that accurate portrayal of the speci- 
mens is almost impossible. The one represented was collected 
in the clays at Kreischerville. This same species has been 
identified by Prof. J. S. Newberry from the clays of Wood- 
bridge, South Amboy, and Sayreville, N. J.

The above determination is founded upon a single fragment 
from the Kreischerville clay, which, although fairly well 
preserved, would be hardly sufficient to justify a positive 
determination did we not have an abundance of the same 
species with which to compare it from the clays of New Jersey, 
where it is one of the most common of the conifers, It is 
described and figured ‘in Velenovsky’s Gymnospermen der 
Beemischen Kreideformation, 22, Pl. XII. f. 12 and Pl. XIII.

It is with some hesitation that I have referred this specimen 
to the above species. It has been identified by Dr. Newberry 
from the Woodbridge N. J., clays, but our specimens are merely 
represented by imperfect impressionsin hard ferruginous con- 
cretions and are not satisfactory for determination. The one 
figured was found in a concretion on the shore at Tottenville.

There can be but little doubt that our specimen is the same 
species as describedand figured by Heer, in his Flor. Foss. Aret. 
T. 94, Pl. XLV. f. 19a., 19b. from the Tertiary of Greenland. I 
was at first inclined to compare it with S. concinna or S. fastigiata, 
both of which have been found in the Cretaceous (Patoot) beds
