HJ. MÖLLER AND T. G. HALLE, FOSSIL FLORA OF S.E. SCANIA. 19 



There can be no doubt that the Rödaisberg flora is 

 either Rhaetic or Liassic, but to which of these formations 

 it should be referred can hardly be decided on the basis of 

 the present material. The balance appears to be, perhaps, 

 somewhat in favour of the Rhaetic, as the only species which 

 is not compatible with a Rhaetic age, viz. Cladophlebis cf. 

 lobifolia, cannot be definitely determined. It would appear, 

 however, from a survey of the plant-remains, that the flora 

 of Rödaisberg is younger than that of Munka Tågarp, as it 

 should be in regard to the stratigraphy. Of the three spe- 

 cies of the Munka Tågarp flora only Guthiera angustiloha is 

 found at Rödaisberg, but the vertical distance between the 

 two horizons is not very great — apparently less than the 

 distance between the plant-bearing stratum of Rödaisberg 

 and the Cardium-heå, which is referred by Moberg to the 

 lower part of the Middle Lias. 



3. The Flora of KurremöUa. 



Kurremölla is the most important of the three localities 

 at which plant-remains have been collected in the coal- 

 bearing series of south-eastern Scania. Regarding the geology 

 reference may be made to the historical review at the be- 

 ginning of this paper, especially to the section in our text- 

 fig. 2 (p. 6), to Moberg's monograph of 1888,^ and to his 

 guide of 1910.2 



The locality was visited in 1903 by Möller who endeav- 

 oured to identify the section described by Moberg.^ Owing 

 to the rapid weathering of the rocks and the covering by 

 vegetation, this proved impossible, and a new section was 

 opened. This is situated in the same cutting as that described 

 by Moberg, i. e. S. E. of the mill of Kurremölla, somewhat 

 E. of the brook of Kurremölla, or 92 paces from the bridge, 

 following the road to Röddinge. 



The following strata were noted, in descending order.
