The remains of fossil plants in the various beds in Australia are much 
more numerous than the animal remains of land and fresh-water habit,* 
while the marine animals in the Carboniferous and Devonian beds, from 
which fossil plants are also known, are abundant enough. Of the lower 
classes, Algtc, Musci, &c., nothing is represented amongst the fossils from the 
above strata. We begin at once with the Equisetaceous plants. 
A,— EQUISETACEJE, or CALAMAKJEA1. 
Ohs . — According to the classification in Zittel’s “ llandbuch dor 
Palaeontolo }ie ” (II Bd., 2 Lief.), we have Calamarieae, Equisetem, 
Schizoneureoe, Annulariem, and Calamiteoc ; in an Appendix is added the 
Sphcnophyllcie.

(True horsetails.) 
Ohs . — I have myself seen or determined no fossil belonging to this 
order, but there is one fragment of Hquisetum described by the Bev. J. E. 
T. Woods. 
[ # The sentence, “ various beds in Australia,” is too sweeping a one so far as New South Wales is concerned. 
In the later Tertiary and Post Tertiary the converse is the case. — 11. E., jun.]
