tion. Besides diifermg by the form of the leaf, the secondary veins are 

 thicker and flat, and the nervilles scarcely distinct.

cxxvi, Fig. 3. 



A fragment only, with the point and the base of the leaf destroyed. 

 The form of the leaf and its nervation agree with the author's figure and 

 description. It differs much from the other species described above* 



Ehamnus rectinervis, Heer, Eept., (1871,) p. 295. 



It is not frequent at Golden. We have only a few specimens from the 

 ■white sandstone. 



JuGLANS RHAMNOiDES, Lsqx., Eept. (1871,) p. 294. 



Sparingly represented at Golden. 



JUGLANS RUGOSA, Lsqx., Supt, p. 10. 



Found in more numerous and better preserved specimens than the 

 former. 



JUGLANS (FICUS ?) SmITHSONIANA, Lsqx., Supt., p. 16. 



The leaf referable to thi^ species merely differs from the one pub- 

 lished from the Eaton, by the less tapering base, which is more abruptly 

 attenuated to a broad petiole, a difference scarcely noticeable. 



JuGLANS SchijVIPERI, Lsqx., Supt., p. 8. 



The specimens of Golden have the same characters as described. The 

 peculiar form of the leaves identifies them easily. 



Carpolithes palmarum, Lsqx., Supt., p. 13. 



A number of fruits of the same size and form as those from the Eaton 

 Mountains. They are not striated, however, and rather coarsely 

 wrinkled. They may represent a different species. 



Beside the leaves described from Golden's specimens, I found still 

 there a stipule of Platanus, a leaflet, square in outline, 2^ cent, wide, 

 acutely shorc-lobed at the two upper corners, truncate at base, without 

 visible nervation. It is apparently referable to Platanus Haydenii. 



A number of fragments of uncertain aifinity, or whose character 

 could not be recognized ; among them, leaves doubtfully referable to' 

 Ahius Keferstemii, Gopp, others to Rliamnus DechenU, Web., and still 

 others to Cinnamomum Mississipiense. Lx., have been obtained from the 

 same locality by Prof. B. F. Meek. 



MarshalVs Ustate, Boulder Valley. 



Specimens of fossil plants are here found, either in clay-beds, where 

 the fragments are heaped and mixed together in a mass of unrecogniz- 

 able forms, or in a coarse sandstone; where the details of nervation are
