186 BERRY: MeEsozOIC FLORA OF THE COASTAL PLAIN 
Jersey Raritan which Newberry identified as Z/uztes Mertani Heer 
is to be correlated with it. 
OccurRENCE: Big Bend, Black River ; Parker Landing, Tar 
River.

This handsome species characterizes the Cenomanian and 
Senonian floras of Europe and the Magothy formation of eastern 
North America. Although Newberry is cited above, this species 
does not occur in the Raritan formation, his specimens having 
almost certainly come from the overlying Magothy formation. 
As may be seen from the figures (PLATE 20, FIGURES I—4), the 
North Carolina material is abundant and shows the characteristic 
leaf-scars of this species. The North Carolina forms are much 
more robust than any other specimens known to the writer, some 
of the leaves being 6.5 cm. in length and 4 mm. in width, so that 
it may be desirable eventually to consider them as representing a 
variety. However, as the usual size occurs sparingly in association 
with the larger examples it seems probable that both were borne 
by the same trees. 
OccURRENCE : Corbits Bridge, Horrell Landing, Sykes Land- 
ing, A. C. L. Bridge, Black River.

This Upper Cretaceous conifer is confined to the Bladen and 
homataxial horizons of the Atlantic coastal plain with a recorded 
range from New Jersey to South Carolina. The geometrical im- 
pressions of its symmetrical leafy twigs with their semicircular 
appressed leaves is so characteristic that the merest fragment is 
readily identifiable, even by a novice. (PLATE 20, FIGURE 5.) 
OccurRENCE : Elizabethtown, Cape Fear River. 
Cephalotaxospermum gen. nov. 
Fruits solitary (?), sessile or with an extremely short and stout 
peduncle, ovoid, somewhat pointed apically and inclined to become 
slightly cordate below, consisting of an outer fleshy layer and an 
inner bony layer, as in the Cycadales and Ginkgoales ;_ its
