the name of Catamites Lindleyi, given it by Sternberg to dis- 

 tinguish it from Brongniart's plant. 



Pis. xxiii., xxiv. Peuce Withami, L. and H. 



Locality. — Sandstone Quarry, Hill Top, near Ushaw, about 

 4 miles N.-W. of the City of Durham. 



Horizon. — (?) 



Remarks. — Schimper places this in Cedroxylon, Kraus, 

 under the name of Cedroxylon Withami. 



I have only met with one specimen of the plant, which I 

 received from Mr John Young, F.G.S., and which was sup- 

 posed to have come from the neighbourhood of Manchester. 



PI. XXV. ASTEROPHYLLITES FOLIOS A, L. and H. 



Locality. — Jarrow Colliery. 



Horizon. — Lower Coal-Measures. Roof of the Bensham 

 Seam. 



Remarks.— 1 have failed to discover any character by 

 which this can be distinguished from Annularia radiata, 

 Brongt. (the foliage of Catamites ramosns, Artis). 



The type of Asterophyllites foliosa, L. and H., is preserved 

 in the " Hutton Collection." 



PI. XXV., fig. 2. ASTEROPHYLLITES GALIOIDES, L. and H. 



Locality. — Barnsley Coal Field. 



Horizon. — Middle Coal-Measures. 



Remarks. — I have recently received specimens oi Annularia 

 microphylla, Sauveur,^ from near Barnsley (Lindley and 

 Button's locality), collected by Mr W. Hemingway. Till 

 receiving these specimens I had met with no plant that 

 explained the Asterophyllites galioides, and I now think that 

 there is little doubt as to Sauveur's Annularia microphylla 

 (1848) being the Asterophyllites galioides, L. and H. (1832). 

 As Lindley and Hutton's name is the older of the two, the 

 plant must now be distinguished as Annularia galioides, 

 L. and H. sp. 



PI. xxvi. Lepidostrobus ornatus, L. and H. 



Locality. — Barnsley Coal Field. 

 Horizon. — Middle Coal-Measures.
