314 MR ROBERT KIDSTON ON THE FOSSIL PLANTS OF THE 



The right-hand branch on Lindley and Hutton's plate xv., as well as their plate 

 xvi., does not belong to Calamites ramosus, Artis (= Catamites nodosus, L. and EL). 

 These figures, which have so long done duty as the foliage of this Catamite, have been 

 found on more careful examination to be spikes of cones, whose position in regard to the 

 stem on plate xv. is merely accidental. This supposed foliage of Catamites ramosus is 

 really a spike of cones referable to the genus Pala&ostachya, whereas the cones of Cata- 

 mites ramosus, which have been described by Weiss (toe. cit. ), belong to the Calamostachys 

 type of cone.
