330 MR ROBERT KIDSTON ON THE FOSSIL PLANTS OF THE 



be carefully looked for in Britain, as all the British specimens which have previously 

 been referred to this last-mentioned species are referable to Neuropteris Scheuchzeri, 

 Hoffm. 



The specimen of Neuropteris Blissii, Lesqx., is figured natural size, and was com- 

 municated to me by the Kev. D. Landsborough. 



Locality. — Bonny ton Pit, Kilmarnock. 

 Horizon. — Shale over Whistler Seam.

Remarks. — Very rare. Zeiller* expresses some doubt as to Odontopteris Britan- 

 nica being distinct from Neuropteris obliqua, Brongt., but as I understand these two 

 species, they cannot be united.
