Ohs. — This species is closely related to Ginkgocladus novce-zeelandice, 
from the Fossil Flora of New Zealand. The genus Ginkgocladus is characterised 
by its tender pliyliodia, being scarcely coriaceous, and not divided or compound. 
They show thin nerves, being simple or forked, partly in a flabelliform, 
partly in a penniform nervation. In reference to this texture and nervation, 
the genus named reminds us of Ginkgo, and the analogy to the latter is still 
more heightened by the long petiole, being preserved only on the New Zealand 
fossil. Relating to the pinnatiform nervation, our genus is nearly related to 
Phyllocladus. 
The specimen before us exhibits all the characters of Ginkgocladus, the 
broken off petiole excepted. But it differs from the New Zealand fossil by 
the form of the pliyllodium, being more cuneate and deeply serrate at its 
truncate apex. 
Locality and Horizon. — Fox and Partridge’s claim, between Rose 
Valley and the Red Hill, 2 miles from Emmaville (Vegetable Creek Town- 
sliip) ; ironstone shale from the Newer Leads (stanniferous).
