Aphlebia PRESL. 
Aphlebia Presl, in Sternberg, Flora der Vorvelt, vol. 2, facl. 7, 8, p. 112, 1888. 
Aphlebia lacinata Fontaine and I. C. White. 
The veins of this species are thin, not numerous, dichoto- 
mize once or twice, and send a single nerve into each tooth. 
The fronds are toothed, the teeth being unequal in size. The 
border is lacinate; the large lacinee have usually a sharp tooth 
on either side. The teeth of the Kansas specimens are sharper 
and turn up more than those from the West Virginia locality 
as represented in the type figures, although otherwise the 
specimens agree closely. 
Formation and locality: Wellington shales, Banner City, 
Dickinson county. 
Aphlebia sp. 
A second species of Aphlebia is found in the collection hav- 
ing a frond about 4 cm. long, with four or five linear lacinze 
on either side separated by obtuse sinuses. 
Formation and locality: Wellington shales, Banner City, 
Dickinson county, and from the Chase formation at:Wash- 
ington. 
Neuropteris BRONGNIART. 
Neuropteris permiana sp. nov. Pl. LXI, fig. 1; pl. LXII, fig. 9; pl. 
LXII]I, figs. 1-4. 
Fronds large, pinnate. Pinnules very large, coarse, slightly 
oblique, or at right angles to a strong, rigid, longitudinally 
striate rachis. Midvein of the pinnule unusually strong for 
the genus, striate, continuing to near the apex of the pinnule, 
reaching in the largest pinnules a width of 4 mm. at the base, 
and in the smaller about 2 mm. Lateral veins leaving the 
midrib at an acute angle, arched and meeting the border at 
an obtuse angle, branching once near the base and usually 
again near the border; those near the base curve back de- 
cidedly into the auricles, those near the apex being more 
oblique. Veins rather coarse, distinct, counting, after the last — 
bifurcation, 30 or 82 per centimeter. Pinnules variable in 
size, small ones probably not more than 6 or 8 cm. long; the 
largest seen, the base only of which is preserved, is 4 cm. 
wide and probably not less than 12 cm. long. The pinnules, 
except those which have a cyclopterid form, are long, sloping 
very gradually to an obtuse apex; the borders are entire, the 
base apparently cordate and short petiolate. The pinnule
