Figs. 5 — 6. Sagenopteris polyphylla, n. sp. These two specimens belong, I believe, 

 to that form which McClelland first mentioned as Glossopteris aeaulis, which, how- 

 ever, I consider to be a Sagenopteris.

Fig. 1. Macrotceniopteris dcmaeoides, Royle sp. a portion from the middle part of the 

 leaf enlarged to show the development of the secondary veins from the midrib. 



Figs. 2 — 4. Glossopteris angustifolia, Bgt. Fig. 2. A nearly complete leaf with base 

 and apex. Figs. 3 and 4 top portions of the leaf — all exhibiting the marginated 

 margin which probably indicates the fructification — which in this case would be a 

 "fructijicatio-Pteridis." Fig. 2a. A portion, enlarged to show the veins and the 

 marginal smooth longitudinal portion of the leaf. 



Fig. 5. Glossopteris communis, n. sp. A portion of a Glossopteris, which is very fre- 

 quent throughout the Damuda Series. 



Fig. 6. Aletliopteris Whitbyensis (?), Gopp. Two pinnulse belonging most probably 

 to this mezozoic species.
