BERRY: FLORA OF THE MATAWAN FORMATION 69 
PROTOPHYLLOCLADUS SUBINTEGRIFOLIUS (Lesq.) Berry.* (PLATE I, — 
FIGURE 5.) 
The Cliffwood specimen has the nervilles fine, .75~1.00 mm. 
apart, and shows no trace of a midrib, a feature which is scarcely 
defined in small leaves of this species, and wanting in several of 
Heer’s figures, as well as in Hollick’s leaf from Staten Island. 
SEQUOIA GRACILLIMA (Lesq.) Newb. (PLATE 2.) 
These cones are exceedingly common in the shingle on the 
beach after severe storms. Last summer’s collections contain no 
less than thirty-nine specimens, many of which are of consider- 
able size. 
Following are the lengths of the largest specimens: 7.3 cm., 
7-9 cm., 8.1 cm., 8.25 cm., 8.6 cm., 9 cm., 9.5 cm., 10.2 cm. 
Plate 2 gives an excellent idea of the appearance and size 
variations of these cones. igure 3 is the least flattened by com- 
pression, being nearly round. The scales are hexagonal and in 
juxtaposition. Most of the specimens, however, are considerably 
flattened, the scales are somewhat separated, and they do not pre- 
serve their hexagonal outline with any degree of regularity. This 
is well shown in figure 4. 
Sequoia ReicHensacut (Gein.) Heer. (PLATE 4, FIGURE 8.) 
The specimen figured is probably a small cone of this species, 
although there is considerable resemblance to some of the cones 
of the widespread Seguoia Langsdorfii (Brongn.): Heer, of the 
upper Cretaceous and Tertiary of both continents, which compari- 
son is heightened by the finding at Cliffwood of a single detached 
leaf (xo. 4506) not figured or described, which seems referable to 
that species, but which may perhaps be a leaf of Cunninghamiites 
elegans or Sequoia heterophylla. 
Dammara CrirFWooDENsIS Hollick. (PLATE I, FIGURE II.) 
The proofs of my Matawan Flora were not revised until after 
I had collected the specimen here figured, and I removed the 
interrogation mark which Hollick placed after this species, as it 
seems more nearly allied to the scales of the existing Dammara 
than any of Heer’s species.
