page 331 note 1 We are indebted to the publishers of the “Acadian Geology” for the use of this and the three other woodcuts from that work.

page 336 note 1 We write this remembering that Cotta has figured a longitudinal section of Stigmaria ficoides, the vascular tissue of which is composed of Cycadean-like vessels traversed by the muriform cells of medullary rays, but it is quite certain that if this is a faithful representation of the wood of the fossil, the fossil is not Stigmaria ficoides.
