The specimens representing this species are among the most satisfactory which 

 have been found within the insular area, and it is evident from the number of speci- 

 mens included in the collections that the species was an important element in the 

 flora. It is prominently identified with the Pakota group and also occurs in the 

 clay marl of ClifTwood, N. J., but has not been found in the Amboy clays. 



Locality: Glen Cove, Long Island, PL XIX, figs. 1, 2. Collected by Arthur 

 Hollick. Specimens in Mus. New York Bot. Gard.

 Specimens in U. S. Nat. Mus. 



Magnolia tenuifolia Lesquereux. 



PI. XVII, fig. 1; PL XVIII, figs. 4, 5. 



Magnolia tenuifolia Lesq., Am. Jour. Sci., vol. 46, 1868, p. 100; Cret. FL, 1*874, p. 92, pi. 21, fig. 1; Berry, Bull. 

 New York Bot. Gard., vol. 3, 1903, p. 77, pi. 47, fig. 10; Hollick, ibid., 1904, p. 413, pi. 73, fig. 2. 



There is considerable difference between the robust specimen represented by 

 our fig. 5, PL XVIII, and the more delicate specimens represented by the other two, 

 but the same may be said of Lesquereux's figures/ and the general resemblance 

 between all of them seems to justify the reference to this species.

Magnolia longipes Newberry.? 



PI. XXI, figs. 5, 6. 



Magnolia longipes Newb., Mon. U. S. Geol. Survey, vol. 26 (FL Amboy Clays), 1895 (1896), p. 76, pi. 54, figs. 

 1-3; Hollick, Bull. Torrey Bot. Club, vol. 21, 1894, p. 60, pi. 178, figs. 1, 3; Fifty-fifth Ann. Rept. New 

 York State Mus., 1901 (1903), p. r50. 



These fragmentary specimens are not satisfactory subjects for accurate com- 

 parison, and they might be almost equally well included with M. tenuifolia Lesq., 6 

 which differs but little from the species under consideration. In order that satis- 

 factory comparison might be made, however, it would be necessary to have both the 

 apex and petiole represented.
