442 FLOEA OF THE CARBONIFEROUS PERIOD. 



Genus Noeggerathia, Sternberg. 



1. Noeggerathia ? s. n. 



Bay de Chaleur, Sir W. E. Logan. A remarkable fragment of a 

 leaf, with a petiole nearly three inches long, and a fourth of an inch 

 wide, spreading abruptly into a lamina one side of which is much 

 broader than the other, and with parallel veins running up directly 

 from the margin as from a marginal rib. It appears to be 

 doubled in at both edges, and is abruptly broken off. It seems to 

 be a new species, but of what affinities it is impossible to dej 

 cide. 



2. N. flabellata, L. and H. 

 M. C. Sydney, R. Brown. 



Cycxopteris. Brongt, 

 Including Cyclopteris proper and sub-genera Aneimites Dn. and 

 Mephropteris, Brongt. 



1. Cyclopteris JieteropTiylla, Goeppert. 

 M. C. and U. C. Joggins, J. W. D. 



2. C. [{Aneimites) Acadica, Dawson, (Journ. Geol. Soc.,Vol. 11.) 

 L. C. Horton, C. F. Harit; Norton Creek, N.B., G-. F. Matthew. 

 Stipe large, striate, branching dichotomously several times. 



Pinnse with several broadly obovate pinnules grouped at the end 

 of a slender petiolule, and with dichotomous radiating veins. 

 Fertile pinnse with recurved petiolules, and borne on the divisions 

 of the main petiole near their origin. This plant might be placed 

 in the genus Adiantites, Brongt., but for the fructification, which 

 allies it with such ferns as Aneimia. It has a very large frond, the 

 main petiole being sometimes three inches in diameter, and two 

 feet long before branching. Flattened petioles have sometimes 

 been mistaken for. Cordaites and Schizopteris. It is a characteristic 

 plant of the Lower coal measures. 



3. G. oblongifola, Goeppert. 

 U. C. Pictou, J. W. D. 



A little larger and coarser than Goeppert's figure. 



4. C. (Nephropteris) obliqua, Brongt. 



M. C. Sydney, R. Brown; Grand Lake, C. F. Hartt. 



5. C. {? Neuropteris) ingens, L. & H. 



M. C. Sydney, R. Brown ; Grand L., C. F. Hartt. 



6. C. oblata, L. & H. 

 M. C. Sydney, R. Brown. 

 1. C. fimbriata, Lesquereux. 

 M. C. Sydney, R. Brown.
