particularly characterising the leaflets of Copaifera, is not preserved on the 
fossil of Eadoboj, it is distinctly perceptible on the leaflets of the Austra- 
lian species, and represented in Pig. 23a, enlarged. The leaflet above 
described differs from those of the Eadoboj leaflets by its more oblong shape.

Ohs. — The only specimen here figured, an opened cone, which unfor- 
tunately is imperfectly preserved, lays before me. It is short, bears almost 
the facies of a small cone of the Pinus group Licea or Larix , but differs from 
them by its scales. They are oblong, obscurely ribbed-striate, and scarcely 
thinned at their margin ; texture is more ligneous than coriaceous. Inspect- 
ing its other characters, the cone seems to he related in some degree to those 
of the sub-genus Sapinus. The classification of this fossil still being doubt- 
ful, may be pointed out by future investigations when they might be based 
upon a more complete material.
