the Devonian Flora of Europe. 
Devonian foss'l plants all new to science except one Calamite, (C. transi- 
nes) found in Europe. These plants were collected at Gaspé, C. E., St. 
hn’s N. B,, and Perry, Maine, and represent the following genera, Pro- 
lolaxites 1 sp., Dadoxylon 1, Sternbergial, Aplozylon 1, Sigillaria 1, 
Calamites 1, Arterophyllytes 1, Sphenophyllum 1, Lepidodendron 1, Lep- 
tdostrobus 2, Lycopodites 1, Psilophyton 2, Selaginites 1, Megaphyton ? 1, 
Cordaites 2, Sagenaria ? 1, Cyclopteris 1, Sphenopteris. 
Of these the Cyclopteris (C. Jacksoni) is the same submitted by Prof, 
Rogers to the geological section of the American Association at Newport, 
a him, as by Prof. Dawson, it was compare with C. Hibernica 
of Ireland. This and other species afford an interesting parallelism with 
. 
In a note to Prof, D.’s paper, reference is made to the discovery by Mr. 
Hartt of a number of additional species at St.Jo 
t s, N. B. 
Specimens have been sent to the Geological Cabinet of Yale College with 
So far as the materials now in o ssion suffice for a comparison 
Setween the Devonian plants of Europe and America, they would seem to 
Indicate with equal generic identity a greater specific difference than has 
been noticed in the flora of the Carboniferous period.
