I he rigidity of the leal and veins in tJie above s[)ecimens, and 
tlie acute dichotomy of the venation ai'c strong evidence in favour 
of its felationslnp with the (Jinhgoales and not witli (hiropteris, 
to winch genus Newell Arbei'^'^ lias referred a New Zealand species 
almost identical with the above. In the same report Newell Arber 
lias named the Soutli .Australian (Leigh s ( reek) specimen, wdiicli 
Ltheridge, jiin., described as Aiifhyopsis sp.,’*" Chimpteris Ktheridqei 
sp. nov. 
Another form .somewhat related to P. Feryusoiip from the Trias 
(Ipswich Heries) of (Queensland, was described by ('arruthers'*" as 
Spheti(>ptefi'< r,trnea/a. This has a shorter and broader leaf, as the 
name deludes. 
PsfifitnophulJum is known Irom rocks as early as the Devonian, 
and the genus persists into the Hhaetic, if Brauns and Newell Arber’s 
sjiecies are included.
