5. ' The Anatomy of Lepidophloios laricinus, Steriib/ 

 By D. M. S. Watson, B.Sc. 



A specimen of LejndoiJiJoics laricimis, foi.nd in one of the coal- 

 balls of Lancashire, shows the internal structure. The species is 

 new, and is of the ordinary lepidodendroid type, but is remarkable 

 for the great size and strength of the corona and the leaf -traces. 



Lepidophloios acadianus, Dawson, which is identical with 

 L. laricinus, appears to differ in its internal structure, in having 

 still stronger protoxylem-points and leaf-traces. 



Lematopldoios crassicaide, Corda, which is L. aeerosua, L. & H., 

 appears to resemble greatly the Lancashire specimen of L. laricinus 

 in its structure, and is quite distinct from the specimen of the same 

 form described by Cash & Lomax. 



Lepidodetulron fuhginosum, Will., a structural species, appears to 

 include a specimen the external structure of which corresponds with 

 LepidojMoios acerosus, Lej)idodendron ohovatum, L. acuhatum, and 

 ISigillaria discoplwra. TJnder these circumstances, it is proposed 

 to take no account of the impression-species in considering the 

 synonymy of the structural specimens, and vice versa. When 

 tiie exterior of a structural specimen is actually known, it may be 

 referred to by the name of the structural species, with that of the 

 impression-species added in brackets.

IvEFEEEiNG to Mr. Sherbom's notes in the last number of the 

 ' Annals,' on the dates of publication of this work, and having in 

 my library parts 1 to 9 in the original wiappers as issued, as well 

 as a complete copy in the original boards, 1 am able to make some 

 corrections and clear up the questions upon which he is in doubt. 



Thrips and Fklceo'hrips were issued in part 6 (not in 5). Eudi- 

 nopus was also issued in this part. 



Flati/gmia, which he states he cannot find, was issued in part 7. 



Phthirius was issued in part 4, and the " Carton " is a correction, 

 not an addition as he states, and with Ltjstra and Phenax " Carton " 

 must have been issued in part 10 as he suggests. 



A titlepuge bearing " Vol. i. llbynchota," 1838, with the Preface 

 dated October 1837, was issued in part 1 ; but, as other orders were 

 included in the later parts, another titlepage, with "llhynchota" 

 omitted and dated 1838-1845, was issued with the last part, and 

 this sliould be taken as the correct date of publication, 1837 being 

 the date the Preface was written. 



Each of the ten parts comprised four pht<s with the corre- 

 sponding text. 0. E. Jaxso:n^.
