394 Berry: MESOZOIC FLORA OF ATLANTIC COASTAL PLAIN 
flexuous. Secondaries about five thin subopposite pairs, diverging 
from the midrib at angles of about 45 degrees, camptodrome. 
A single but entirely typical leaf of this species is contained in 
the collection. It is identical with the remains of this species as 
they occur in the basal part of the Tuscaloosa formation in 
Alabama and in the Dakota sandstone of Kansas. It is relatively 
wider and more robust than the type material from the Atane 
beds of Greenland, being intermediate in character between the 
type material and that referred to this species from the Raritan 
formation of New Jersey. Its reference to the genus Myrica is 
entirely problematical.

This species was described by Lesquereux from the Dakota 
group at Fort Harker, Kansas, and was subsequently recorded 
by Hollick from the Cretaceous material (Raritan or Magothy) 
in the terminal moraine near Tottenville, Staten Island. The 
Arthurs Bluff collection contains a single specimen and its counter- 
part showing half of a large typical leaf of this species. There's 
also an undeterminable species of the Populus type in the collec- 
tion.

This species was described originally from the Dakota group 
of Nebraska by Heer. It is a widespread and common aart 
Cretaceous form ranging from Marthas Vineyard to Alabama . 
the Atlantic coastal plain and from Northwest Territory 
Kansas and Nebraska in the western interior. It is abundan 
in the lower part of the Tuscaloosa formation in wester ae
