Y. Keport on the Plant-Remains. 



Mr. Arbor's report on the plant-remains is as follows : — 



'8th March, ]910. 

 ' I have now completed an examination of the specimens which you sent last 

 week. The collection is very typical of the best possible specimens that one 

 can get from the Culm Measures. I fully understand that this collection 

 represents much hard work, and I am quite certain from the evidence in North- 

 West Devon that, imperfect and fragmentary as they are, your specimens 

 represent as good examples as it will ever be possible to get from these beds. 

 At the same time they are so fragmentary that it is almost impossible to 

 determine them. A Neuropteris, or possibly two, appear to be common, and in 

 one case the species appears to be clearly N. schlehani, Stur, which I have 

 already described from Devon. Another fern-like plant may be Umatopteris 

 tenella (Brongn.), though one cannot be certain. Several Calamites occur, but I 

 cannot determine the species. The small scars shown on certain specimens are 

 very puzzling : I am inclined to regard them as isolated root-scars of Stiy- 

 maria. If so, they show how much these plants were drifted and broken before 

 incrustation took place. These fossils might also conceivably be small branch- 

 scars of a Catamite, but I do not think this likely. These specimens are 

 obviously of Upper Carboniferous age, but they are not sufficiently numerous 



to indicate the horizon I think that you have got better specimens than 



any hitherto obtained from the neighbourhood of Exeter Your specimens 



leave nothing to wish for in preservation, but they are too fragmentary to be 

 determined. 



' I remain, yours truly, 



E. A. Newell Arber.,
