3d. The flora of the red sandstone, although it has been very im- 
perfectly preserved, and its scanty remains but little studied, Unger 
thinks was not materially different in type from that of the coal forma- 
tion. But the fossils of this era which have been referred to palms, 
he thinks are very doubtful. Even in the variegated sandstone, which 
furnishes the remains of some other Monocotyiedonous plants, no palms 
are found; nor are there any traces of them quite up to the quader- 
sandstein, in which Goeppert found some vestiges in Silesia, (Flabella- 
ria chameeropifolia.) From an older formation, the Oolite, the four
