MIOCENE FLORA FROM COASTAL PLAIN 25 
above the top of the petiole, subopposite. The sinus which inter- 
venes between the basal and the median lateral lobes is cut to within 
4 or 5 mm. of the midrib and is narrow and acute and but slightly 
inclined. ‘The median lateral lobes which are 50 per cent. longer 
than the basal pair, and also broader, are somewhat more ascending, 
the angle of divergence of their secondaries from the midrib being 
46°. ‘The next sinus is somewhat broader, widening out laterally. 
It is about the same depth as the lower sinus, terminating internally 
in a narrow obtuse point. The upper lateral lobes are about the 
same length as the median pair, but are more ascending, their second- 
aries diverging from the midrib at an angle of from 35° to 42°. The 
terminal lobe is g mm. wide at its base and of undeterminate length, 
probably about 1.5 cm., the sinus between it and the upper lateral 
lobes being broad and almost straight sided, terminating internally 
in an obtuse point. The leaf texture was somewhat coriaceous and 
the tertiaries were camptodrome and of the usual Quercus type. 
This species is based upon two specimens with their counterparts, 
the more perfect of which is figured, the other being slightly larger 
and showing the obtuse terminations of the lobes, supplying these 
parts which are missing in the figured specimen. 
This is a rather handsome oak abundantly distinct from the forms 
heretofore known, and it is named in honor of Dr. Benjamin L. 
Miller who discovered the locality from which the collections were 
made.
