After Sohimper.) species from Russia described by Grigoriewi as Neuropteris, cf. cordata var. densineura, represents another form of similar habit. Schuster' has recently proposed a new generic name Ulvopteris for a fragment of a pinna from the Coal-Measures of Dudweiler in Germany bearing large pinnules, which he compares with those of Cardiopteris and species of Rhacopteris. The specimen appears to be indistinguishable from some of ' Grigoriew (98) PI. iv. - Schuster (08) p.
