imperfect to determine either its position or even the character 
of the entire pinnule, or its mode of attachment. It would 
-be perfectly safe, however, to refer it to the specially created 
genus Osmundia as defined by me, and I would suggest that, 
for the present, it be referred to as Osmundia Strzleckit 
‘Ettings, as a congener of the closely allied O. Tasmanica, 
mihi, occurring in the Leaf Beds of Glenora. 
Phyllites salicifolium, nov. sp. 
(Plats, fig; 3:) 
Leaf imperfect, linear lanceolate accuminate, sharply serrato- 
‘dentate; mid-rib distinct; secondary nerves thin, simple, 
curving gently upwards, and reaching margin and forming the 
sharply-defined upper edge of each serrature; 13 pairs in 
upper half of leaf; length of complete specimen about 3 
inches; greatest width at middle about =® of an inch. 
Horizon,—Lower Tertiary. Leaf Beds near Glenora. 
Phyllites Oleaciformis, mihi. 
(PE te. 1; also PY. XXXVIL., fic. 2. Geol. of Tas.) 
Leaf imperfect, ovate; margin distantly serrato-dentate ; 
mid-rib distinct; secondary nerves—l4 pairs—obscure, fine, 
simple, hidden in a somewhat coriaceous integument, and 
gently curving upward, reaching upper margin of each 
serrature; surface covered regularly with small round 
glandular dots. 
Length complete, 2$ inches; greatest breadth at middle, 1 
inch. 
Horizon.—Occurring with the previous species. 
Banksia lancifolia. Ett. 
(Pl. L, fig. 4.) 
Although only a fragment, the characters of this leaf 
impression are in all respects identical with a form under the 
above name described by Ettingshausen (“Tertiary Flora of 
Australia,” p. 141, Pl. xii, fig. 15) froma specimen obtained 
at Old Rose Valley Lead, N.S. Wales. The following is the 
description given of the complete specimen : — 
“ Banksia lancifolia. Sp. char. B. foliis petiolatis coriaceis 
anguste lanceolatis, basi acutis, apicem versus sensim attenu- 
atis, Margine spinoso-serratis ; nervatione brochido-craspedo- 
droma; nervo primaris valido, prominente ; nervis secundariis 
subangulis 55-56° orientibus, tenuibus subarcuatis, approxi- 
matis; nervis tertiariis rectangularibus, dictyodromis; rete 
microsynammato tenerrimo.”
