Our specimen has very nearly the orbicular form of this species, 
but the nervation is obscure or wanting, and hence the identi- 
fication is indicated as provisional only. The species has not 
heretofore been reported from the Cretaceous of Eastern North 
America. 
Locality: King’s gravel pit, Roslyn, N. Y. Hollick, Sept. 26,

Only one fragment of this variable species has been heretofore 
recorded from Long Island,* although many specimens have 
been found on the neighboring islands and in New Jersey. Heer 
included a considerable variety of forms under the species, and 
other writers have followed suit, so that it would be quite possible 
to differentiate more than one variety or species from among 
them.

Eucalyptus Geinitzi propinqua var. nov. 
(PLaTE 170, Fic. 3) 
Leaf about 8 aos ee by 2.5 cm. wide, entire, flexuous, narrowly 
elliptical, ree at base and summit; secondary nerves fine, 
i tat irae leaving the midrib at various angles, the 
low ais ae upper more acute, terminating in a marginal 
nerve. 
I have thought it advisable to regard this specimen as a variety 
of the species, on account of its greater relative width as compared 
with others of about the same length. It resembles the fragment 
depicted by Heert from the Lower Atané beds of Greenland, but 
his figure is too imperfect for satisfactory comparison.
