Notes : (a) Lepulndendron. This genus appears to have been found in Australia at an early date 

 by the explorer Leichhardt, on the Manilla River, borders of Queensland, and by Stutchbury on the 

 Storton River {Pari. B. B. Ddc. 1854). The Rev. \V. B. Clarke reports specimens of Lepidodendron 

 from the Peel River; near Goonoogoonoo ; to the W. of Bathurst, Wellington Valley; and Canoona 

 on the Fitzroy or Mackenzie River. (Quart. .Tour. Qcol. Soc. xvii. p. 356; S. Goldfields, p. 285; also see 

 Keene, " On the Coal Measiu-es of N. S. Wales, with Spirifer, Glossopteris, and Lepidodendron," 

 Quart. Journ. xxi. p. 137.) 



(6) Syringodendron. Mr Carruthers observed in a collection of plants forwarded to the Geo- 

 logical Society of London by the Rev. W. B. Clarke, a fragment of a Lepidodendroid plant which he 

 could not distinguish from S. (Cyclostigma) Kiltorkense. Haughton (Quart. Jour, xxviii. p. 354). 



(c) Sagenaria. A fragment in the Daintree Collection appeared to indicate, to Mr Carruthers, a 

 third species of Lepidodendron, allied to S. (Lepidodendron) obovata. Eichwald (I.e.). 



(d) Calamites, Stigmaria, &c. It is to be noted that the Rev. W. B. Clarke states that Stigmaria, 

 Sigillaria, Halonia and Calamites are common in the Carboniferous rocks of N- S. Wales. (Quart. 

 Jour. IV. p. 60.) 



(e) Coniferous Trees. Trunks of Coniferse were found by tiie same observer on the coast of 

 M.S. Wales" at Wanniwarrce in the same beds with Spirifcrs (Quart. Jour. iv. p. 60; see also Nicol, 

 Jidinburgh New Phil. Jour. 18-52, iv. p. 153; Dana, Geol. U.S. Krploring Exp. p. 7U).
