Remarks. — The specimen from Canonbie was fragmentary, but I have very little 

 doubt as to its belonging to Lepidodendron lycopodioides, Sternb. 



Lepidodendron lycopodioides, Sternb., is very common in the Middle Coal Measures, 

 and from the examination of many specimens I have satisfied myself that Lepidodendron 

 selaginoides, Sternb., is founded on the leafy and younger branches of Lepidodendron 

 lycopodioides, — some of my specimens, collected by Mr. W. Hemingway, show the 

 organic union of the two forms. 



The Lepidodendron elegans, Brongt.,* and Lindley and Hutton,t have been 

 referred by some botanists to Lepidodendron lycopodioides, Sternb., but, so far as 

 one can learn the characters of the specimens from the figures given — the mode in 

 which the foliage springs from the stems — suggests rather that they should be referred 

 to Lepidodendron ophiurus, Brongt.
