Ohs. — We may suppose by the appearance of this fossil a stiffly 
coriaceous leaf, the form of which is lanceolate and equally narrowed towards 
both ends. The margin being sharply prominent, is untoothed, but rather 
undulate. Its nervation shows only a primary nerve, which is strongly 
prominent till the half length of the lamina, and some craspedodrome 
secondary nerves, which are scarcely prominent, at rather acute angles of 
divergence, and 6 millimeters distant from one another. Tertiary nerves are 
not visible. I compared this fossil to the leaves of Olea apetala, Yahl, 
living in New Zealand and Norfolk Island, and I found a striking likeness to 
exist between both. Tertiary nerves are also not visible on the living species. 
There seems to exist only one difference between that and the fossil species, 
namely, that the form of the leaf is more elliptical, and its apex obtuse on the 
former, whilst on the latter the form of the leaf is lanceolate and its apex 
acute.
