This list is, with a few additional species and localities, the same with that published in my " Synopsis of the Carboniferous Flora of Nova Scotia," Can. Nat., vol. viii. 1863. It is given here to aid those who may desire to make collections of these interesting fossils, and for comparison with the coal flora of other regions. Dadoxylon, linger. 1. Dadoxylon Acadianum, spec. nov. (Fig. 159, B). Large trees, usually silicified or calcified, with very wide wood-cells, having three or more rows of small hexagonal areoles, each enclosing an oval pore; cells of medullary rays one-third of breadth of wood-cells, and con- sisting of twenty or more rows of cells superimposed in two series. Rings of growth indistinct. M. C.,* Joggins, Port Hood, Dorchester (J. W. D.). 2. D. maleriarium, spec. nov. (Fig. 159, C). Wood-cells less wide than those of the last; two to rarely four rows of hexagonal discs. Medullary rays very numerous, with twenty or more rows of cells super- imposed in one scries. Rings of growth slightly marked. Approaches in the character of its woody fibre to D. Brandlingii ; but the medul- lary rays are much longer. Some specimens show a large Sternbergian pith, with transverse partitions.â¢{â Vast numbers of trunks of this species occur in some sandstones of the Upper Coal formation. M. and U. C, Joggins, Malagash, Pictou, etc. (J. W. D.); Glace Bay (H. Poole); Miramichi (G. F. Matthew). 3. D. antiquiiis, spec. nov. (Fig. 159, D). Wood-cells narrow, thick- walled, two to three rows of pores. Medullary rays of three or four series of cells with twenty or more supe
