The pinna shown in fig. 624 from the Jurassic beds in York- shire ^ is interesting as one of the few examples of the preservation of the cuticular membrane. The straight or curved walls of the epidermal cells agree with those of recent Cycads except Stangeria, and each cell bears a large central papilla that gives to the lamina the finely punctate appearance which has been regarded as evidence of sporangia. The gaps in the cuticle probably mark the position of sunken stomata. 1 Seward (04) B. p. 115. ^ Hid- (00) p.
