DESCRIPTIONS OF SPECIES. 55 



do not appear to have been entirely successful, as may be seeia by comparing Heer's 

 figures (loc. cit.) with those so referred by Lesquereux" and by Newberry (loc. cit.), 

 although the latter, it should be noted, made the identification provisional only. 

 Fig. 8 is apparently a portion of an anient, such as are figured by Heer (loc. cit., pi. 

 42, figs, lb, 2b), and included with the leaves under the same specific name. The 

 difference, however, between these and the similar aments which he iiicludes under 

 Myriea longa^ is very slight, and they may all belong to the same species.

 fuglans arctica Heer? Hollick, Bull. Torrey Bot. Club, vol. 21, 1894, p. 51, pi. 178, fig. 2. 



These specimens, while they do not compare very satisfactorily with Heer's 

 type figures (loc. cit.), or \yith the specimens subsequently figured, ■= are apparently 

 identical with tliose referred to this species by Lesquereux.'^

Juglans elongata n. sp. 



PI. XI, figs. 3, 4. 



Laurus OmaUii Sap. et Mar., Hollick, BuU. Torrey Bot. Club, vol. 21, 1894, p. 52, pi. 176, fig. 3. 



Leaf about 2 decimeters long, narrowly ovate-lanceolate in outline, slightly unsymnietrical and rounded 

 at the base, tapering to the apex; margin entire and somewhat sinuous; midrib strong, somewhat flexuous, 

 and curved at the base; secondaiy nerves numerous, forming angles of about 45° with the midrib, somewhat 

 more obtuse near the base, curving rather sharply and extending upward near the margin where the extremities 

 thin out and anastomose; tertiary nervation mostly irregular and branching, but in general at nearly ri^ht 

 angles to the secondaries throughout. 



Tliis is apparently a well-defined species of Juglans which is different from any 

 Cretaceous species heretofore described, but is strikingly similar to J. ScMmperi 

 Lesq.,'' especially when compared with specimens described and figured by me from
