to the writer some of the many species of Magnolia identified by 
Dr. Hollick in the insular deposits.” The only leaf of this genus, 
however, with which it appears to be possible to confound it, is 
M. Van Ingeni Hollick* which, however, is more flexuous in 
outline, midrib, and secondary nervation than is the species in 
question. Possibly, if an entire leaf, or one in which the summit 
is preserved, should be discovered, it might be necessary to describe 
our specimens under a new specific name, but hardly under any 
genus other than Ficus.

Ficus Wootsonr Newberry 
(PLaTE 165, Fic. 3) 
“Ficus Woolsont Newb. in mss.,”’ Hollick, Trans. N. Y. Acad. Sci. 
12: 33, pl.2,f.7,2¢. 1 
Ficus Woolsont Newb., Monoe. U.S. aa 26 (Fl. Amboy 
Clays): 70, pl. 20, f. 3, pl. 23, f. 1-6 
Although the base of our specimen is ae there can be 
hardly any doubt in regard to its identity with this species, espe- 
cially when compared with Newberry’s figures 3 and 5, plate 23 
(doc. ctt.). 
It is interesting to find another of the characteristic Amboy 
Clay species represented in the Cretaceous flora of Long Island.

PROTEACEAE 
Embothriopsis presagita gen. et sp. nov. 
(PLaTE 165, Fic. 1) 
Leaf ae cena entire, 1.1 dm. long by .45 dm. wide, rather 
abruptly atten at the summit, ne at the base, thence 
ee secondary nerves . se in opposite 
or sub-opposite pairs, basal pair weak, nding upward sub- 
parallel with the margin to oe half the length of the leaf, second 
pair stronger, somewhat simulating lateral primaries, both pairs 
leaving the midrib at acute angles of eval iia uppe Lee at more 
obtuse angles, ns curving around an inning out close to the 
margin, where they are apparently connected by and ened into 
the fine bana nervation.
