DESCRIPTION OF SPECIES. 63 
Myrica PaRvULA Heer. 
Pl. XIX, fig. 6. 
Myrica (Comptonia) parvula Heer, Fl. Foss. Arct., Vol. VII, p. 20, Pl. LV, figs. 1-3. 
One complete leaf is the only specimen of the species contained in our 
collections. It resembles very closely, though exceeding somewhat in size, 
the leaves which are figured and described by Heer in his Flora Fossilis 
Arctica, Vol. VII, p. 20, Pl. LV, figs. 1-3, and it evidently belongs to a 
closely allied species of the same genus, if not to this one. Professor Heer 
describes on p. 77 of the same volume, and figures on Pl. LXXI, fig. 12, a 
fragment of a leaf to which he gives the name of Myrica (Comptonia) par- 
vifolia. This is so similar to the last described that it is difficult to see why 
they should be separated. So fig. 9 on the same plate, named Myrica 
borealis, may very well have been a leaf from the same tree. 
Locality: Sayreville. 
Myrica Newserryana Hollick, n. sp 
Pl. XLII, fig. 5. 
Leaf about 3 in length by 1™ or more wide, summit blunt-pointed, 
base unknown, margins undulate; nervation rather clear, but fine, midrib 
strong, side branches given off at a large angle, curving upward and 
inosculating near the margin. 
Only two or three fragments of this species have been obtained, but, 
though allied in appearance to M. fenestrata, it differs from that in the 
fineness, curvature, and divisions of the lateral nerves. 
Locality: South Amboy. 
Myrica FENESTRATA Newb. n. sp. 
Pl. XLII, fig. 32. 
Leaf lanceolate, blunt-pointed, 4°%™ long by 1™ wide, margins undu- 
; ’ D J to) 
late; nervation strong, lateral nerves given off from the midrib nearly at a 
1 Dr. Newberry’s manuscript name for this species was Myrica undulata, but as Schimper has 
transferred the Dryandroides undulata of Heer to the genus Myrica, the names become identical. No 
species of this genus having been hitherto named for Dr. Newberry, this one may be so designated.—
