The majority of the specimens in Sedgwick's Collection are the 

 remains of Lepidodendra. Most of them are more or less decorti- 

 cated. Some of the least decorticated probably belong to Lepido- 

 dendron aeuleatum, while others, perhaps, belong to species that 

 cannot be definitely identified. Fortunately there are one or two 

 well-preserved examples of the former, of which one is figured in 

 PL I, fig. 4. The whole specimen measures 8 by 6 inches. The 

 leaf -bases average 1| inches in length, and ^ inch across at the 

 widest part. The prints of the bundle, and of the parichnos of 

 the leaf-scar, are well preserved in some of these leaf-bases.
