be not far from the green beds at the base. It is described and 
figured in the Appendix (see infra, pp. 421-2, Pl. XVII, Fig. 2). 
Rhynchosauroid footprints.—Some obscure footprints resembled this 
type at Kegworth, but are too indefinite to identify with any 
certainty. In the Building Stones on the opposite side of the River 
Trent, at Weston Cliff, footprints ascribed to Cheirotherium were found 
years ago. Others were discovered in similar beds at Brizlincote. 
In the waterstones near Barton, on the Ashby Road, near 
Mr. Wardle’s house, footprints of Chetrothertum are also recorded 
by Molyneux and Sir Oswald Mosley at Barton Bridge.! 
In the green beds lying over the basal conglomerate at Colwick, 
Notts, Wilson found guwisetites columnaris, and scales of fishes, 
Semtonotus sp., and of a paleoniscid type. In the same beds, in the 
Midland Railway cutting, the Rev. Dr. A. Irving found footprints of 
a Labyrinthodont. 
The officers of the Survey have found obscure remains of plants 
during their work in the same district. They found annelid tracks 
at Westhorpe, Dumble, near Southwell, and suggest the possibility 
of fossils in rocks at Markham Clinton. In the green beds they 
found obscure remains of plants, and at Farnsfield plants showing 
cell structure and bits of plants and ill-preserved fish-scales at 
Boughton Dike. 
Upper Keuper Red Marls and Sandstones. 
In the Orton-on-the-Hill Sandstone Group so far no plants have 
been discovered. In the Dane Hill Sandstone Group at Leicester, 
however, a number of fossils have been found. They were described 
at an ‘early date by J. Plant, 1849 (Brit. Assoc. Report, 1850), and 
more fully by his brother, James Plant, in 1856. 
Alge(?).—Some carbonaceous bands, intercalated between sand- 
stones, were said by Plant to be due to Alge. Certain casts of 
obscure plant-like structure may be referable to Algz, but they are 
not satisfactory enough to place the matter beyond doubt. Well- 
boring, Leicester. 
Equisetites arenaceus.—Certain casts of Equisetaceous plants which 
are characterized by long internodes and nodes with well-marked 
furrows may be referred with some reason to the above. There is no 
resemblance between them and Schizonewra, to which certain pith- 
casts in the Lower Keuper of Bromsgrove are referred by Mr. Wills. 
Shoulder of Mutton Hill Cutting, Westcotes. 
Schizoneura sp.—Dane Hills. 
Stigmarites. — A Lycopodiaceous rootlet may be provisionally 
referred to this genus, though it presents no characters for defining 
a separate species. Dane Hills. . 
Voltzia heterophylla.—Specimens found by Plant are referred to 
Voltzia, and in the British Museum a specimen (B.M. 24190) is 
referred by Professor Seward to the genus, though named Gorgonia 
Keupert. A cast of the stem is probably referable to this species, and 
1 Coleman refers to these and says that Estheria minuta oceurs in water- 
stones or white beds.
