The origin of coal is a difficult problem which is very far from being solved. The Coal Measure flora has long been extinct, and the modern representatives are feeble folk, almost crowded out of existence by plants of very different appearance and internal structure. The modern marsh flora is not primitive but secondary, and consists almost entirely of land plants which have taken to the water habitat again, just as the whale, porpoise, and seal are land animals which have gone back to rejoin their remote ancestral relatives in the sea. Homologous comparisons between past and present are therefore practically impossible, but some common pool developments of to-day may provide useful analogies if nothing more.

In the present note it is intended to record a find of considerable importance to geologists and palaeogeographers, namely the discovery, last summer, by Mr. J. M. Wordie, St. John's College, Cambridge, of Lower Eotriassic ammonites at three localities on the south side of Gael Hamkes Bay, on the East Coast of Greenland, in 74° N. latitude. There are altogether ninety-five specimens, most of them well preserved, including various new forms, of which I hope to publish full descriptions elsewhere.
