During the field season of 1901 Mr. James Storrs, of Mr. Diller's 

 party, collected some fossil plants in northern California. They were 

 from three locahties, one of which was on the divide between the Trinity 

 and Sacramento rivers, near the head of Dog Creek; another was 3 miles 

 above Whitney's, on the road to Trinity Center; the third was about 

 2 miles northwest of Slatonis on the old wagon road. The last two 

 were in the Redding quadrangle, in Trinity County. The specimens 

 from all these localities showed for the most part only faint traces of 

 vegetable remains. Those from the first-named consisted of a matted 

 mass of macerated leaves, apparently of some conifer, but wholly inde- 

 terminable. On a few slabs from the last-named locality, however, 

 there occur a cone, much distorted by pressure, and some coniferous 

 leaves and twigs, upon which Professor Fontaine has reported. 



In this miscellaneous collection I shall also include-^^the specimens 

 from the Franciscan, or Golden Gate, deposits of Slate Springs, Cal- 

 ifornia, the history of which was given in the first paper," which have 

 since been determined and the single species named. 



All of these specimens were sent to Professor Fontaine for deter- 

 mination, and he reports upon them as follows : * 



"Twentieth Ann. Rep. U. S. Geol. Surv., Pt. II, 1900, pp. 338-339. 



6 For these small collections it will be suiBcient to arrange the species in their systematic order without intro- 

 ducing the higher terms of the classification. Where they have already occurred in the larger report reference 

 is made to the descriptions and synonymy.
