 Measures of Zwickau in Saxony, characterised by dimorphic

lanceolate leaves in four rows, the larger being 4 — 6 mm. long : 

 the smaller leaves have a ciliate edge. A comparison is made 

 with the recent species Selaginella arabica Baker, S. revoluta^ak.., 

 and S. armata Bak. in which the leaves are described as ciliate. 

 In the absence of sporangia and spores the species is placed in 

 the genus Lycopodites.
