Deposits contarning Fossil Plants. vB 
GRAYS, ESSEX. 
(Tylor, ‘On Quarternary Gravels, Quart. Journ. Geol. 
Soc., Vol. XXV., p. 83. 1869; Reid, ‘Pleistocene Plants 
from Casewick, Shacklewell, and Grays, z¢d. Vol. LIIL., 
Pp. 464. 1897.) 
The plants collected by Prestwich occur associated with 
or below the remains of Mammoth and Corbicula fluminalis. 
They point distinctly to a temperate climate and mild 
winters, for the Ivy is extremely sensitive to winter cold. 
Both the character of the flora and the position of the 
deposit suggest correlation with the temperate plant-beds 
of Hoxne, which lie between the Boulder Clay and the 
deposit with Arctic species. 
Ranunculus repens. Populus canescens (?). 
Rubus fruticosus. Salix sp. 
Rosa. Potamogeton. 
Hedera Helix. Cyperus (?). 
Ulmus (?). Phragmites (?). 
Alnus glutinosa. Grass nodes. 
Quercus Robur, var. sessiliflora. Equisetum. 
Corylus Avellana. 
GREENOCK (ROXBURGH ST.). 
From the Clyde Beds (Late Glacial or Neolithic) 
Mr. Thomas Scott obtained the following species :— 
Potentilla Tormentilla (?). Carex. 
Taraxacum officinale. *Anthoxanthum odoratum. 
Thymus Serpyllum. *Poa trivialis. 
Atriplex patula. 
GRUNENTHAL, HOLSTEIN. 
Weber, Neues Jahrb. Mineralogie, Geologie .... 1891, 
Vol. IL, pp. 62-85, 228-230; and 1893, Vol. I., pp. 94-96.) 
* These I think are recent specimens; they are not in the same 
state of preservation as the others, and are therefore omitted in the 
summary. It is extremely difficult to prevent the adherence of light 
grass-seeds when removing lumps of clay.
