Sp. Char. — M. foliis coriaceis, breviter petiolatis, lanceolatis, utrinque 
angustatis, margine revolutis, integerrimis; nervatione brocliidodroma; nervo

dientibus, approximatis, laqueos in nervum marginalem distinctum confluentes 
formantibus ; nervis tertiariis parce evolutis indistinctis. 
Ohs. — Relating to its coriaceous texture, nervation and lanceolate 
lamina narrowing into a short petiole, especially respecting its recurved 
borders indicated by a corresponding thickened margin, this fossil resembles 
several forms of Myrtacese, which are mostly common to Leptospermum and 
Melaleuca, whereas the secondary nerves are rather more numerous, and 
diverge at more obtuse angles than those of the just-mentioned genera. Pig. 
13a represents the nervation, showing the marginal nerve formed by connected 
secondary loops, as well as the dots which correspond to oil glandules. 
Looality and Horizon. — With the preceding species.

Doliciiites coriaceus, sp. nov. 
Plate XV, Fig. 24. 
Sp. Char. — D. foliolis coriaceis, rotundato-ellipticis, inaequilateris, 
integerrimis ; nervatione camptodroma ; nervo primario valido ; nervis secun- 
dariis subangulis 50-60° orientibus, adscendcntibus, inferioribus extus 
ramosis, reliquis simplicibus ; nervis tertiariis e latere externo secundariorum 
subangulis acutis excuntibus, inter se conjunctis, basilarium prominentibus. 
Ohs. — One can scarcely doubt that the leaf -fossil represented in Fig. 
24, is a leaflet of a Phaseolese. It betrays a coreaccous texture, and being 
roundish-elliptical and entire in shape, shows an inequilateral development. 
The primary nerve is strongly prominent and sends out strong secondary ones, 
which are curved along the margin, ramous at the base of the lamina, but 
simple in their other part. The tertiary nerves proceed from the outer side of 
the secondary ones at acute angles, and are almost transversely anastomosing. 
This fossil is strikingly similar to the rather large leaflets of Dolichites
