From South Rewah and the Satpura basin, 
5.— Araucarites Kachensis, Fstm. 
I gave this name to seeds which were pretty frequent among the Kach fossils and 
which are very closely allied to Mr. Phillips’ “ Winged seed,”* described later by Carruthers 
as belonging to Araucarites, with the name Araucar, Philligsi, Carr.f Those from 
Kach I called Araucarites Kachensis, Fstm.,J in order to distinguish them, although they 
are very like those from England. In the Jabalpur group they' also occur very frequently, 
and they are the same as in Kach, so that I shall call them by the same name. 
Besides Palissya Jabalpurensis, Fstra., Mr. Hughes found this species in the Wurdha 
coal-field, near Nawgaon. I was, therefore, able to determine this group with certainty. 
From South Rewah, Jabalpur, and the Satpura basin. 
Besides these species mentioned, there occur some more coniferous plants that seem to 
be peculiar, although allied with one or the other of those described. 
Amongst the coniferous plants there are, therefore— 
1. —Palissya indica, Fstm.—an Indian type. 
2. — Palissya Jabalpurensis, Fstm., characteristic of the group. 
3. — Brachypjtyllum mamillare, L. & H. 
4. — Ec.hinostrobus expansus, Schimp. 
5. — Araucarites Kachensis, Fstm.—the three last are lower oolitic forms in 
England and elsewhere. 
Altogether I have now mentioned nineteen species of fossil plant?, which may' rise to about 
twenty-four or a little more when I add the species as yet not mentioned. I would here only 
discuss those that are best determined and correctly compared with other well known forms. 
From these nineteen mentioned species there are— 
«■—Identical or very closely' allied with English lower oolitic species— 
1-— Cyclopteris lolata. Fstm.,—scarcely different from Cyclopteris Baiera digitata, 
L. & H. 
2. — Alethopteris Whitbyensis. Gopp. 
3. — Pecopteris Murrayana, Bgt. 
4. — Sagenopteris comp., Phillips, Schenk. 
5. — Sphenopteris comp, arguta, L. & H. 
6 . — Podozamites lanceolatus. L. & H. 
7. — Williamsonia comp, gigas, Carr. 
8 . — Brachyphyllum mamillare, L. & H. 
9. — Echinostrobus expansus, Schimp. 
10 .— Araucarites Kachensis, Fstm., near Araucar. PMUipsi, Carr. 
Of the other nine species there are— 
h.— An upper liassic form :— 
1 — Otozam.ites gracilis, Kurrsp—from Upper Lias nearOhmden in Wurtemberg— 
the only ally of our Ptilophyllum, Morr.
