102 PALÉOZOULUGIE ET PALÉOPHYTULOGIE 



An accounL of seeds associaLed wiLh Glossopleris at several localilies in 

 Oueensland. The seeds are not in actiial connection with Glossopleris, butthe 

 occurrences indicate a strong probabiliiy of Lhem belonging Lo that plant. 

 The mode of préservation lias ma de it possilile to describe part fo the vascular 

 System and anatomy which suggest relationship to the Trigonocarpales. 

 Remarks are also added on scalc-leaves associated with Glossopleris in 

 Oueensland. Microsporangia of Glossopleris were described from Australia 

 by Arl)er in 1905, and the seeds hère described prolialdy represent the mega- 

 sporangia, heuce Glossopleris is classed with the Cycadofilicales.

L'existence de ce végétal est signalée dans les grès couvinicns rouges de 

 la carrière de la Roche près de Malonne, province de Namur, où il a été trouvé 

 par M. l'ingénieur Bellière avec un admirable exemplaire d'un grand Psigmo-

A few years ago I sent a collection of fossil plants from the Port Waikato 

 Mesozoic beds to the late Dr. E. A. Newell Arber, but his death occurred 

 before he was able to examine them. The spécimens were then forwarded 

 by Mrs. Arber to Professor A. C. Seward, who has been so good as to report 

 upon them in a récent letter. 



Résides certain other species reported by Arber (i), Professor Seward 

 identifies the following plants not previously known from Prt Waikato : 

 (1.) Araiicarites culchensis Feist. 

 (2.) Coniopleris hymenophylloides (Brong.). 

 (3.) ? Slachyotaxus cf. S. elegans Nath. 



(4.) Elalocladus plana (Feist.). (May be identical with Elatocladus sp. 



of Arber, pi. xiii, fig. 9.) 



Amongst the plants forwarded was a spécimen labelled in Professor A. P. 



W. Thomas's handwriting as Asplenium palseopleris (Ung.). This is regarded 



by Professor Seward as probably the same as Coniopleris hymenophylloides 



(Brong.). 



Professor Seward remarks in his letter to me : « Perhaps the most inte- 

 resting is Elalocladus plana (Feist.), which may be, I think, the same as 

 the spécimen named by Arber Elalocladus sp. ; I feel practically certain 

 that this conifer is the same as that described by Feistmantel from Jurassic 

 rocks of India. » In referringto the <i Asplenium palseopleris (Ung.) » he says :
