DESCRIPTION OF SPECIES. 133 
No indication of their probable botanical affinities was given by Dr. 
Newberry, and it seems best to leave them, without comment, under the 
name with which he labeled them. 
Locality: Woodbridge.—A. H. 
CARPOLITHUS WOODBRIDGENSIS Newb. n. sp. 
Pl. XLVI, fig. 22. 
A few subellipsoidal longitudinally striated fruits, 9" or 10" long by 
3™" or 4™" broad, were found, to which the above name was attached by 
Dr. Newberry. Their probable botanical affinities were not indicated. 
Locality: Woodbridge.—A. H. 
CARPOLITHUS PRUNIFORMIS Newb. n. sp. 
Pl. XLVI, fig. 42. 
Somewhat irregular in shape, ovoid, pointed at both ends, striated 
longitudinally, single, or connected at their ends in pairs, 15"" or 16™™ 
long by 6™™ or 8™" wide. 
These organisms are more or less abundant in the Woodbridge clays. 
They were named as above by Dr. Newberry, but without any indication 
of his opinion as to their botanical affinities. —A. H. 
CaRPOLITHUS FLORIBUNDUS Newb. n. sp. 
P]. XLVI, figs. 17-21. 
These organisms are apparently small seed pods, somewhat longer 
than broad, 8™™ or 4" to 6™™" or 7"™™ in diameter, with an opening at the 
apex surrounded by sharp teeth. The opening is often closed, in which 
event the pod merely appears to have an acute apex, due to the coalesc- 
ing of the sharp teeth. They occur singly or in pairs (fig. 18) on slender 
branches, and one specimen (fig. 19) shows an apparently dichotomous 
arrangement of the branches. 
The name adopted is the one by which Dr. Newberry designated the 
specimens from which the drawings were made. No indication of probable 
botanical affinities was given.
