 Paliurus f sp. 



Bib: Geol. Surv. Can., 1877-78, 186 B. 



The only reference to this doubtful specimen is to be found in Sir William Dawson's 

 account of plants from Vermilion cliff on the Tulameen river, published in 1877. 



Paliurus colombi, Heer. 



Bib : Trans. R.S.C, IV, 1886: Fl. Foss. Arct., I, 122 : U.S. Geol. Surv. Terr., 1871, 288: 

 Tert. Fl., 1878, 273. 



Paliurus colombi is found in the Fort Union group of the Yellowstone river, Montana; 

 the Denver group of Creston, "Wyoming ; the Miocene of John Day valley, Oregon, and the 

 Lignite Tertiary ot Porcupine creek, Saskatchewan, which is the only Canadian locality so 

 far known. 



Phragmites sp. 

 Bib : Trans. R.S.C, IV, 1886. 



The very unsatisfactory fragments of leaves usually known as Phragmites have been 

 found in the Lignite Tertiary of Porcupine creek, at Coal gully, at Kettle river, and in the 

 Miocene of the Similkameen river. 



Phyllites sp. 



Bib : Trans. R.S.C., IV, 1886. 



An undescribed species of Phyllites was recorded by Sir William Dawson from the 

 Lignite Tertiary of Porcupine creek and Great valley in 1886. 



Phyllites aceroides, Heer. 

 Bib : Trans. R.S.C, I, 1882-83, iv, 33 ; VIT, 1889, iv, 69 : Flor. Foss. Arct., I, 139. 



Dawson's reference to this species is a citation of Heer's account which is the only real 

 record of this leaf in the Lignite Tertiary of Canada, but as the account is founded upon a 

 sniall fragment of the tip it is not very reliable. 



Phyllites earneosus, Newb. 

 Bib : Trans. R.S.C, VIII, 1902, iv, 46 : Lat. Ex. Fl.,1868, 75. 



There appear to be only two records for this leaf — one from the Fort Union group of 

 Fort Union, North Dakota, the other from the Red Deer river in Canada. 



Phyllites cupanioides, Newb.* 

 Bib : Trans. R.S.C, IV, 1886, iv, 32 : Lat. Ex. Flor., XXXV, 1898, 135. 



This species was observed by Dawson in the Lignite Tertiary of Great valley, and was 

 incorrectly published by him as P. caparinoides, Newb. It is a species which Newberry 

 originally obtained from the Fort Union group of Dakota.
