192 ARATJCARITES. 



V. 2331. Two specimens, in the form of oblique sections, of 

 a cone, probably belonging to the same species as V. 2180. Cf. 

 Carruthers, 1 pi. vi. figs. 1 and 9. Ecclesbourne. Rufford Coll. 



V. 21805. Two specimens, showing an impression of the cone 

 surface. In size, and as regards the form of the scales, very 

 similar to Carruthers' supposed bucklandian male cone, pi. liv. 

 fig. 6. 2 Cf. V. 2148. Possibly this specimen should be referred 

 to another species; it is smaller than V. 2180 (PL XII. Fig. 2). 

 Ecclesbourne. Rufford Coll. 



V. 2148. The impressions of the distal ends of the scales show 

 a small central depression, corresponding to an umbo on the 

 scale apex. This and other examples should be compared with 

 Araucarites Pippingfordensis (Ung.), the original of which is in 

 the Museum Collection. Ecclesbourne. Rufford Coll. 



V. 2265. Scales clearly preserved, showing in side view 



a longitudinal depression, suggesting a shrinking of the seed 



cavity. V. 2265. A well-preserved, but smaller specimen. 



Ecclesbourne. Rufford Coll. 



V. 2277. Cf. V.2148. V. 3185. The thick central axis clearly 

 shown, also impressions of scales in side view. Ecclesbourne. 



Rufford Coll. 



V. 3173. Cone in cross section ; scales with seeds clearly pre- 

 served. Other specimens referred to this form of Araucarites : 

 V. 2245, V. 2263, V. 2263, V. 2264, V. 2279. 



Araucarites, sp. 



V. 2266 and V. 2280. Two specimens of small subspherical 

 cones imperfectly preserved ; of the same form as the preceding 

 examples, but considerably smaller. Ecclesbourne. Rufford Coll.
